tbh this sounds like a bug in that subsystem, since it means we cannot use
said subsystem in mmap handlers either.

So if you have some remapping unit or need to wake up your gpu to blt the
buffer into system memory first, we're toast. That doesn't sound right. So
maybe Cc: pm folks and figure out how to fix this long term properly? Imo
not a good reason to hold up this patch set, since unwrangling mmap_sem
tends to be work ...
