Happy to go with that.
While trying to document the mess, I just stumbled over the abuse of
kmap_atomic_prot() in
drivers/gpu/drm/ttm/ttm_bo_util.c: dst = kmap_atomic_prot(d, prot);
drivers/gpu/drm/ttm/ttm_bo_util.c: src = kmap_atomic_prot(s, prot);
drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_blit.c: kmap_atomic_prot(d->dst_pages[dst_page],
drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_blit.c: kmap_atomic_prot(d->src_pages[src_page],
For !HIGHMEM kmap_atomic_prot() just ignores the 'prot' argument and
returns the page address.
Moar patches to be written ... Sigh!
