[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Wait and retry if there is no space in the aperture mappable area

From: "Siluvery, Arun" <arun.siluvery at intel.com>

When a mapping is requested and if there is no space the mapping fails
and the region is not physically backed. This results in
signal 7(SIGBUS), code 2 (BUS_ADRERR) when it is actually accessed.
This patch handles this error, continues to wait and retries to find space.
