Subject: Re: Adding kmap_atomic_prot_pfn 

Keith,

What you actually are doing here is claiming copyright on code that 
other people have written, and tighten the export restrictions. 
kmap_atomic_prot_pfn() appeared long ago in drm git with identical code 
and purpose, but with different authors, and iounmap_atomic is identical 
to kunmap_atomic.

Pls fix.

/Thomas
