Main problem for me seems to be that I don't fully understand what the 
get_unmapped_area callback is doing.

For example why do we need to use drm_vma_offset_lookup_locked() to 
adjust the pgoff?

The mapped offset should be completely irrelevant for finding some piece 
of userspace address space or am I totally off here?

Ok, that makes sense. Over all we want to be transparent here.

Christian.
