Oh, I wasn't aware of the value in DRM_VMW_EXECBUF_VERSION. But as arg.version is used to index copy_offset,
it is safer to compare its value against the actual size of copy_offset.

So, what do you think if I replace DRM_VMW_EXECBUF_VERSION with ARRAY_SIZE instead of adding a new check
against ARRAY_SIZE?

Something like:

diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_execbuf.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_execbuf.c
index 1f13457..3ef9f7b 100644

Yeah, this check must remain in place. I will add it back and send v2.

Thanks for the feedback!
