Hmm.  Yes, maybe.  We could use the dma address of the (first page of
the) guest buffer.  In case of a secure buffer the guest has no access
to the guest buffer would be unused, but it would at least make sure
that things don't crash in case someone tries to map & access the
buffer.

The host should be able to figure the corresponding host buffer from the
guest buffer address.

When running drm-misc-next you should be able to test whenever that'll
actually work without any virtio-gpu driver changes.

cheers,
  Gerd
