If you mentioned which gfxchip or CPU you have in your OP or the bug, I missed
it. Is it possible your gfxchip makes the following applicable?
* From Linux 4.8, several changes have been made in the kernel
configuration to 'harden' the system, i.e. to mitigate security bugs.
Some changes may cause legitimate applications to fail, and can be
reverted by run-time configuration:
- On most architectures, the /dev/mem device can no longer be used to
access devices that also have a kernel driver. This breaks dosemu
and some old user-space graphics drivers. To allow this, set the
kernel parameter: iomem=relaxed
