Inspired by some refactoring patches from Aaron Plattner, who implemented the same idea, but only for drm/prime drivers.

v2: Check in dma_buf_release that no dangling vmaps are left. Suggested by Aaron Plattner. We might want to do similar checks for attachments, but that's for another patch. Also fix up ERR_PTR return for vmap.

v3: Check whether the passed-in vmap address matches with the cached one for vunmap. Eventually we might want to remove that parameter - compared to the kmap functions there's no need for the vaddr for unmapping. Suggested by Chris Wilson.

Compile-tested only - Aaron has been bugging me too a bit too often about this on irc.

Cheers, Daniel

This should be BUG_ON(vmapping_counter == 0);

Otherwise, this seems to work fine.

The kernel spotted it when I tried to vunmap a buffer. :)

yeah, I think the locking does worry me a bit but hopefully should be able to do something better when reservations land
