Can I directly use cma_alloc() and cma_release() in this case? The contiguous
memory allocated is just for virtual framebuffer device, not for any DMA
operation. I think using dma_alloc_coherent() might be a bit of overkill.

I don't quite follow this. What do you mean implementing a pci_driver
in this case?
