The MediaTek DRM driver implements GEM PRIME vmap by fetching the sg_table for the object, iterating through the pages, and then vmapping them. In essence, unlike the GEM DMA helpers which vmap when the object is first created or imported, the MediaTek version does it on request.
Unfortunately, the code never correctly frees the sg_table contents. This results in a kernel memory leak. On a Hayato device with a text console on the internal display, this results in the system running out of memory in a few days from all the console screen cursor updates.
Add sg_free_table() to correctly free the contents of the sg_table. This was missing despite explicitly required by mtk_gem_prime_get_sg_table().

Also, I was wondering why the MediaTek DRM driver implements a lot of the GEM functionality itself, instead of using the GEM DMA helpers. From what I could tell, the code closely follows the DMA helpers, except that it vmaps the buffers only upon request.

I think this will cause invalid access from the "goto out" path - sg_free_table() accesses the provided sg table pointer, but it doesn't handle NULL pointers like kfree() does.

You're right. I'll send a new version fixing this.
