Currently we create a new mmap_offset for every call to
mmap_offset_ioctl. This exposes ourselves to an abusive client that may
simply create new mmap_offsets ad infinitum, which will exhaust physical
memory and the virtual address space. In addition to the exhaustion, a
very long linear list of mmap_offsets causes other clients using the
object to incur long list walks -- these long lists can also be
generated by simply having many clients generate their own mmap_offset.
However, we can simply use the drm_vma_node itself to manage the file
association (allow/revoke) dropping our need to keep an mmo per-file.
Then if we keep a small rbtree of per-type mmap_offsets, we can lookup
duplicate requests quickly.

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.
