Laurent Pinchart b65e64f7cc drm/cma: Use dma_mmap_writecombine() to mmap buffer
The GEM CMA helpers uses a custom mmap implementation based on
remap_pfn_range(). While this works when the buffer DMA and physical
addresses are identical, it fails to take IOMMU into account and tries
to mmap the buffer to userspace using the DMA virtual address instead of
the physical address. This results in mapping random physical pages when
the device is behind an IOMMU.

Use the DMA mapping dma_mmap_writecombine() function instead.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
