Hm I don't think this works, since for more dynamic framebuffers (like
real big gpu ttm drivers) this is a dynamic thing, which can change every
time we do an mmap. So I think the ttm approach of having an is_iomem flag
is a lot better.

The trouble with that is that you don't have correct checking of sparse
mappings, but oh well :-/ The one idea I've had to address that is using
something like this

typedef dma_buf_addr_t {
	bool is_iomem;
	union {
		void __iomem *vaddr_iomem;
		void vaddr;
	};
};

And then having a wrapper for memcpy_from_dma_buf_addr and
memcpy_to_dma_buf_addr, which switches between memcpy and memcpy_from/toio
depending upon the is_iomem flag.

But it's a lot more invasive unfortunately :-/
