3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ryan Mallon <[email protected]>

commit bf9c05d5b6d19b3e4c9fe21047694e94f48db89b upstream.

The assignment of handle in vmw_framebuffer_create_handle doesn't actually do 
anything useful and is incorrectly assigning an integer value to a pointer 
argument. It appears that this is a typo and should be dereferencing handle 
rather than assigning to it directly. This fixes a bug where an undefined 
handle value is potentially returned to user-space.
