What I mean is the code in dma_common_find_pages, which returns the
page array for freeing.

Yes.  What I originally did (re-created as I didn't save it) would be
something like this:

Subject: drm/i915: use vmap in shmem_pin_map

shmem_pin_map somewhat awkwardly reimplements vmap using
alloc_vm_area and manual pte setup.  The only practical difference
is that alloc_vm_area prefeaults the vmalloc area PTEs, which doesn't
seem to be required here (and could be added to vmap using a flag
if actually required).
