I am unable to trace back where vma->vm_pgoff is set for this driver ? if any ?
If default value set to 0 then I think existing code is correct.

I assume, vm_insert_region() means vm_insert_range(). If we respect vm_pgoff
inside vm_insert_range, for any uninitialized/ error value set for vm_pgoff from
drivers will introduce a bug inside core mm which might be difficult
to trace back.
But when vm_pgoff set and passed from caller (drivers) it might be
easy to figure out.

Mostly Partial mapping is done by starting from an index and mapped it till
end of pages array. Calculating length of the pages array will have a small
overhead for each drivers.

Please correct me if I am wrong.
