I could be completely mistaken here, but don't we need to unmap the
memory from the GPU here because the backing is free? The
panfrost_gem_close() call could come significantly later, by which time
a malicious user space could have run some jobs on the GPU to take a
look at what those mappings now point to (quite likely some other
processes memory).
So this looks to me like a crafty way of observing 'random' memory in
the system.
