fwiw, a5xx_submit_in_rb() isn't a "normal" path (build-time disabled
by default, and restricted to sudo).. it really only exists to
simplify poking at fw.

There could be vmap's in the msm_gem_submit path, however.  If we
don't, we should probably just disallow using an imported dma-buf as
cmdstream.. I don't think there is any sane reason to permit that.  We
should probably also disallow get_vaddr() on imported buffers.
