This triggered my eye, but it's actually correct, as it's stored in
fix->smem_start,
which should be the physical address.

But the external_addr case is wrong ;-)

Starting here, you have:

        cache_push(virt_to_phys(screen_base), screen_len);

atari_stram_to_phys()

        kernel_set_cachemode(screen_base, screen_len,
                                                     IOMAP_WRITETHROUGH);

woops, that won't work with the virt_to_phys() above, nor with transparent
translation. I guess it writes to a non-existent pointer table,
causing the crash?
