This should error rather than adjusting the mapping length if it
exceeds the map'able range.

The terinary seems unnecessary, roundup_pow_of_two() should be a nop if
already a power of 2.

Shouldn't this return -1 value for the data and drop writes in the
function below? Returning -errno is a different thing which could
cause error logging in the VMM if not crash the guest.

Also, mmap'd regions are not required to be mmap'd, read & write to the
coherent area should work through an ioremap.

I had also asked in the previous review whether "nvgpu" is already
overused. I see a python tool named nvgpu, an OpenXLA tool, various
nvgpu things related to Tegra, an nvgpu dialect for MLIR, etc. There
are over 5,000 hits on google for "nvgpu", only a few of which
reference development of this module. Is there a more unique name we
can use? Thanks,

Alex
