GEM does already a good job in tracking access to gem buffers via handles
and drm_vma access management. However, TTM drivers currently do not
verify this during mmap().
TTM provides the verify_access() callback to test this. So fix all drivers
to actually call into gem+vma to verify access instead of always returning
0.
All drivers assume that user-space can only get access to TTM buffers via
GEM handles. So whenever the verify_access() callback is called from
ttm_bo_mmap(), the buffer must have a valid embedded gem object. This is
true for all TTM+GEM drivers. But that's why this patch doesn't touch pure
TTM drivers (ie, vmwgfx).
v2: Switch to drm_vma_node_verify_access() to correctly return -EACCES if
access was denied.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).
The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:
1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.
2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
restricted regions of memory.
3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
switch.
4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
Documentation on the DRI is available from:
