I think DRM_AUTH means root > authority. I know DRM Framework gives any root application DRM_AUTH > authority for compatibility. DRM_AUTH just means that the client has authenticated w/ X11 (meaning that it has permission to connect to x server).. But I think that since memory allocation is limited to the size of the CMA region, that this puts a reasonable cap of the memory that can be allocated by the client. If this is a problem, it certainly isn't the worst problem. You could still limit via file permissions the users that can open the DRM device file, so it is really no worse than other devices like v4l2..
