Hi Michel,

Thank you very much for the insight on CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM. I was able to 
use SystemTap to find where the error was occurring in the kernel. It turns out 
the vesafb takes the framebuffer and sets it IO_RESOURCE_BUSY using sysfb. When 
the framebuffer memory is set as busy and the strict devmem is enabled it will 
not allow the userspace to mmap this area. I changed my grub config to use 
GRUB_TERMINAL=console and that fixed the problem!!
