GEM allocation for para-virtualized DRM driver

[Oleksandr Andrushchenko]

Hello,
I am writing a para-virtualized DRM driver for Xen hypervisor
and it now works with DRM CMA helpers, but I would also like
to make it work with non-contigous memory: virtual machine
that the driver runs in can't guarantee that CMA is actually
physically contigous (that is not a problem because of IPMMU
and other means, the only constraint I have is that I cannot mmap
with pgprot == noncached). So, I am planning to use *drm_gem_get_pages* +
*shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp* to allocate memory for GEM objects
(scanout buffers + dma-bufs shared with virtual GPU)

Do you think this is the right approach to take?

Thank you,

Oleksandr
