Subject: drm/vmwgfx: Enable DMA mappings with SEV
From: Zack Rusin <zack.rusin@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 4c08f01934ab67d1d283d5cbaa52b923abcfe4cd upstream.
Enable DMA mappings in vmwgfx after TTM has been fixed in commit
3bf3710e3718 ("drm/ttm: Add a generic TTM memcpy move for page-based iomem")
This enables full guest-backed memory support and in particular allows
usage of screen targets as the presentation mechanism.
