The function drm_client_buffer_vmap() establishes a long-term mapping of the client's buffer object into the kernel address space. Make sure that buffer does not move by pinning it to its current location. Same for vunmap with unpin. The only caller of drm_client_buffer_vmap() is fbdev-dma, which uses gem-dma. As DMA-backed GEM buffers do not move, this change is for correctness with little impact in practice.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
