The driver does this everywhere, which I also noticed as unnecessary,
but it felt better to be consistent with the rest of the driver here than
to follow common practice.

There are some explicit 'if (zr->overlay_mask)' checks in the driver
that require overlay_mask to be initialized. I could set it to
DMA_ERROR_CODE, but you removed that ;-)

It's easy enough to remove the re-zeroing of the number though
if you still think that's better.

Right, good idea.

Do you mean the table or the buffers it points to? In the code you
quote, we initialize the table with static data before mapping it,
so I would expect either interface to work fine here.

For the actual buffers, I tried to retain the current behavior and
regular kernel memory, in particular because I wasn't too sure
about changing the mmap() function without understanding what
it really does. ;-)

It looks like the buffers are never accessed from the kernel but
only from hardware and user space, so we don't care about whether
we get a mapping that is coherent between the kernel and hardware,
but we probably should ensure that the page table attributes are the
same in kernel and user space (at least powerpc gets a checkstop
for unmatched cacheability flags).

I'd rather not touch that code. How about adding a comment about
the fact that it should use dma_mmap_coherent()?
