Subject: [git pull] drm fix for mmap regression

Hi Linus,

This patch fixes the mmap regression reported to me on irc by an i686
kernel user today, he's tested the fix works, and I've audited all the
drm drivers for the bad mmap usage and since we use the mmap offset as
a lookup in a table we aren't inclined to have anything bad in there.

Thanks,
Dave.
