Moving the driver-specific mmap code into a GEM object function allows for using DRM helpers for various mmap callbacks. The GEM object function is provided by GEM TTM helpers. Nouveau's implementation of verify_access is unused and has been removed. Access permissions are validated by the DRM helpers. As a side effect, nouveau_ttm_vm_ops and nouveau_ttm_fault() are now implemented in nouveau's GEM code.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
