I would find it useful if someone came up with a standard kernel space

By "standard" you mean "self-contained", right ?
One that doesn't depend on X being there.
Can one be build now that just ignores the memory management hooks?
Sure, but you would have to give up using X on that card.
Is memory management the only reason you need to give up on X?
I may possibly be way off here, but can the neomagic hack be a useful (interim)
model here?
(from 'man neomagic')
Option "OverlayMem" "integer"
Reserve the given amount of memory (in bytes) for the XVideo
overlay. On boards with limited memory, display of large XVideo
buffers might fail due to insufficient available memory. Using
this option solves the problem at the expense of reducing the
memory available for other operations. For full-resolution
DVDs, 829440 bytes (720x576x2) are necessary.
Works for me.
