I've tested this on the machine in question, netbsd10.1 userland,
with netbsd10, netbsd11 and netbsd-11.99.5 kernels (with this patch),
and on a machine with intel graphics.


There're 2 issues (both fairly minor) with enabling the shadow FB:

1. Addtl. mem. used for it (20+ MB easily for a 4K resolution).
2. Screen-artefacts on the console after paging with Shift-PgUp/PgDn.

Should I proceed to commit?


It'll have to be you--I'm not in the pantheon :)
