Not really.

The issue is that the offset handling should actually be transparent to TTM. So
mem.start can have any value here which might as well overflow during the
assignment.

So even with Nicolais suggestion of using LONG_MAX I would NAK the patch.

The only clean solution I can see is to remove bo->offset altogether and move
that into a helper the drivers can call on demand.
