Crossed my mind to just do that, but it's not that easy. Right now the
presence of gem_prime_mmap indicates whether mmap on the dma-buf is
supported. Even for a gem driver this might not be the case, because
only dump gem mmappings are supposed to be coherent. Others might need
explicit cash flushing operations, which we don't set up by default
(we can't). For those cases you need to implement
dma_buf_ops->begin/end_cpu_access.

We need to audit all the drivers, and for those which really don't
implement mmap yet, provide a no_mmap dma_buf_ops->mmap implentation
that just does a return -ENOSYS. Once we have that, plus also switched
over everyone else, we can change drm_gem_dmabuf_mmap to
unconditionally call drm_gem_prime_mmap and drop the hook. But without
the full audit we can't do that, we might enable dma-buf mmap
somewhere where it doesn't work.
