A few small nits below, with those addressed:

Api nitpick:

int drm_client_init(struct drm_device *dev,
		    struct drm_client_dev *client)

and dropping the kzalloc from this structure here. This allows users of
this to embed the client struct into their own thing, which means the
->private backpointer isn't necessary. Allowing embedding is the preferred
interface in the kernel (since it's strictly more powerful, you can always
just kzalloc + _init to get the _new behaviour).

Similar here, _release instead of _free and drop the kfree.

I'm paranoid, I think an 

	if (WARN_ON(!gem_prime_vmap))
		return -EINVAL;

would be cool here.

Also perhaps the following comment:

	/*
	 * FIXME: The dependency on GEM here isn't required, we could
	 * convert the driver handle to a dma-buf instead and use the
	 * backend-agnostic dma-buf vmap support instead. This would
	 * require that the handle2fd prime ioctl is reworked to pull the
	 * fd_install step out of the driver backend hooks, to make that
	 * final step optional for internal users.
	 */

Style nit: I'd pull the 

	if (!buffer)
		return;

Case out of the below 2 functions and into this one here: Only here it's
needed, and it makes it a bit more obvious that this function does the
right thing for NULL buffers.

Also please explain this in the kerneldoc.

Not needed if we go with _init and _release because of embedding.
