Yes, mmap will increase file count by calling get_file, so step[2] ->
step[3], file count increase 1.
But, dma_buf_fd() will not increase file count.
function "dma_buf_fd(struct dma_buf *dmabuf, int flags)" just get an
unused fd, via call "get_unused_fd_flags(flags)", and call
"fd_install(fd, dmabuf->file)", it will let associated "struct file* "
in task's fdt->fd[fd] points to this dma_buf.file, not increase the
file count of dma_buf.file.
I think this is confusing, I can get more than 1 fds via dma_buf_fd,
but they don't need to close it because they don't increase file count.
However, dma_buf_put() can decrease file count at kernel side directly.
If somebody write a ko to put file count of dma_buf.file many times, it
will cause buffer freed earlier than except. At last on Android, I
think this is a little bit dangerous.
