From: Jerome Glisse <jglisse at redhat.com>

This patch print a warning message when trying to reserve same buffer
twice in same cs ioctl (because the buffer is known by userspace under
2 different handle). It does not try to fix the issue like :

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1812991/

Just to make this case easier to debug.
