Iirc some drivers even outright reject the mmap if it's not aligned to
the full obj.

Not sure warning is a good idea, because it still means we get to
audit everything. Might as well go ahead an reject it with -EINVAL,
and make sure that's consistent across drivers. But that's all work,
so what exactly is the use-case you have and want to do sub-mmapping
for? Once we have that it's much easier to discuss what to do, instead
of abstraction discussions without the full stack at hand.

Thanks, Daniel
