Subject: [PATCH v2] drm/i915: Replace kmap() with kmap_local_page()

kmap() has been deprecated in favor of the kmap_local_page()
due to high cost, restricted mapping space, the overhead of a
global lock for synchronization, and making the process sleep
in the absence of free slots.

kmap_local_page() is faster than kmap() and offers thread-local
and CPU-local mappings, take pagefaults in a local kmap region
and preserves preemption by saving the mappings of outgoing tasks
and restoring those of the incoming one during a context switch.

The mapping is kept thread local in the function
“i915_vma_coredump_create” in i915_gpu_error.c

Therefore, replace kmap() with kmap_local_page().

Suggested-by: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@...el.com>

	- Replace kmap() with kmap_local_page().
	- Change commit subject and message.
