Yeah, it may be odd but this is indeed what i915 driver appears to be
doing in i915_gem_object_mmap():

        if (i915_gem_object_is_readonly(obj)) {
                if (vma->vm_flags & VM_WRITE) {
                        i915_gem_object_put(obj);
                        return -EINVAL;
                }
                vm_flags_clear(vma, VM_MAYWRITE);
        }
