/* 
 * The last 4096 bytes of the guest VRAM contains the generic info for all
 * DualView chunks: sizes and offsets of chunks. This is filled by miniport.
 *
 * Last 4096 bytes of each chunk contain chunk specific data: framebuffer info,
 * etc. This is used exclusively by the corresponding instance of a display driver.
 *
 * The Virtual Graphics Adapter information in the guest VRAM is stored by the
 * guest video driver using structures prepended by VBOXVIDEOINFOHDR.
 *
 * When the guest driver writes dword 0 to the VBE_DISPI_INDEX_CMONITORS,
 * the host starts to process the info. The first element at the start of
 * the 4096 bytes region should be normally be a LINK that points to
 * actual information chain. That way the guest driver can have some
 * fixed layout of the information memory block and just rewrite
 * the link to point to relevant memory chain.
 *
 * The processing stops at the END element.
 *
 * The host can access the memory only when the port IO is processed.
 * All data that will be needed later must be copied from these 4096 bytes.
 * But other VRAM can be used by host until the mode is disabled.
 *
 * The guest driver writes dword 0xffffffff to the VBE_DISPI_INDEX_CMONITORS
 * to disable the mode.
