drm_gem_cma_mmap() cannot assume every implementation of dma_mmap_wc()
will end up calling remap_pfn_range() (which happens to set the relevant
vma flag, among others), so in order to make sure expectations around
VM_DONTEXPAND are met, let it explicitly set the flag like most other
GEM mmap implementations do.
This avoids repeated warnings on a small minority of systems where the
display is behind an IOMMU, and has a simple driver which does not
override drm_gem_cma_default_funcs. Arm hdlcd is an in-tree affected
driver. Out-of-tree, the Apple DCP driver is affected; this fix is
required for DCP to be mainlined.
How/where does this warn?
In drm_gem_mmap_obj().
Also there should be a lot more drivers than
just these two which have an iommu for the display block, so this not
working is definitely a more wide-spread issue.
As the commit message implies, all those other drivers appear to end up
using different mmap() implementations one way or another. Once I'd
eventually figured it out, it didn't surprise me that the combination of
a trivially-dumb display with an IOMMU is an oddball corner-case.

Alyssa - thanks for reviving this BTW, I'd forgotten all about it! - for
future reference the clunky olde-worlde version of reassigning an MR to
yourself is to add your sign-off to the end of the block (in addition to
any review tags you may have previously given or choose to add) to note
that you've chosen to take on responsibility for the patch[1]. FWIW I'm
also partial to the practice of adding a little note in between if
you've made any tweaks, e.g. "[alyssa: clarify affected drivers]", but
that's often more of a personal choice.
Cheers,
Robin.
