One bug I can see is that if call_mmap() drops the VM_MAYWRITE flag, we seem to forget to drop i_mmap_writeable counter here? I've checked why your v2 version broke i915 and I think the reason maybe has nothing to do with i915. Just in case call_mmap() failed, it ended up jumping to unmap_and_free_vma which calls mapping_unmap_writable() but we didn't call mapping_map_writable() yet so the counter became imbalanced. So I'd be for returning to v2 version, just fix up the error handling paths...
