Thanks for the fix. The 'is_iomem' check should be moved to 
amdxdna_gem_vmap() to cover all the cases.

Mhm, why does amdxdna a vmap in the first place? For some workaround?

Usually DMA-buf only provides that framebuffer emulation scanout inside the kernel.

On the other hand as far as I can see that here should work correctly.

Christian.

This is used for flushing the imported BO before. Based on our 
discussion before, the driver should not flush imported BO, so this 
becomes a invalid case.

On the other hand, vmap on a io_mem should not happen. So I suggested to 
move the check to amdxdna_gem_vmap() for an extra check.
