Cool! I didn't realize we could do page faulting here, since it's
CPU-related. It's definitely nice to be able to map an unlimited
amount of space, at least as a fallback, even if other methods end
up being more efficient and we prefer those.

Indentation is a bit off here (spaces only, 3 space indent).

Lately some other developers have been getting grumpy about requiring
new libdrm versions not in their distros. Maybe for now, we should do:
#ifndef I915_PARAM_MMAP_GTT_VERSION
#define I915_PARAM_MMAP_GTT_VERSION 40 /* XXX delete me with new libdrm */
#endif
and we can leave it for a little while.
Thanks for doing this, Chris!
