The preferred way of setting the color depth is with struct drm_mode_config.preferred_depth. [1] Note that it is the color depth; not the pixel size. In your case:

if (vmw->assume_16bpp)
	dev->mode_config.preferred_depth = 16;
else
	dev->mode_config.preferred_depth = 24;

It's also a hint to userspace. [2]

The prefer_bpp parameter of drm_fbdev_generic_setup() should be 0. It is a fallback to force a certain pixel size, as preferred_depth fails.

-static void vmw_fb_dirty_flush(struct work_struct *work)

This is the flush function for vmwgfx' deferred I/O. If you want to implement deferred I/O with the generic fbdev emulation, you have to set struct drm_mode_config.prefer_shadow_fbdev to true. [3]
