> Do we support __GFP_COMP as vmalloc/vmap flag? As i see from latest:
This is not the case for vmalloc, but applies to dma-bufs that are allocated
using alloc_pages() with GFP_COMP.
#define LOW_ORDER_GFP (GFP_HIGHUSER | __GFP_ZERO)

| __GFP_NORETRY) & ~__GFP_RECLAIM) \
| __GFP_COMP)

In this case, dma-buf attempts to allocate as many compound high-order pages
as possible, falling back to 0-order allocations if necessary.
Then, dma_buf_vmap() is called by the GPU drivers:
1 404 drivers/accel/amdxdna/amdxdna_gem.c <<amdxdna_gem_obj_vmap>>
dma_buf_vmap(abo->dma_buf, map);
2 1568 drivers/dma-buf/dma-buf.c <<dma_buf_vmap_unlocked>>
ret = dma_buf_vmap(dmabuf, map);
3 354 drivers/gpu/drm/drm_gem_shmem_helper.c
<<drm_gem_shmem_vmap_locked>>
ret = dma_buf_vmap(obj->import_attach->dmabuf, map);
4 85 drivers/gpu/drm/etnaviv/etnaviv_gem_prime.c
<<etnaviv_gem_prime_vmap_impl>>
ret = dma_buf_vmap(etnaviv_obj->base.import_attach->dmabuf, &map);
5 433 drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_blit.c <<map_external>>
ret = dma_buf_vmap(bo->tbo.base.dma_buf, map);
6 88 drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_gem.c <<vmw_gem_vmap>>
ret = dma_buf_vmap(obj->import_attach->dmabuf, map);
