I believe we don't have any setup that could exercise the IO/PFNMAP
user pointers, but it should be possible to exercise the basic userptr
path by enabling the virtual (fake) video driver, vivid or
CONFIG_VIDEO_VIVID, in your kernel and then using yavta [1] with
--userptr and --capture=<number of frames> (and possibly some more
options) to grab a couple of frames from the test pattern generator.

Does it sound like something that you could give a try? Feel free to
ping me on IRC (tfiga on #v4l or #dri-devel) if you need any help.
