I'm working on ARM platform with MMU (stm32f4) to enable display driver.
Framebuffer is allocated with dma_alloc_wc() and when userland try to mmap
drm/kms fraemwork calls dma_mmap_wc().
All this is in drivers/gpu/drm/drm_gem_cma_helper.c

dma_mmap_wc() call failed because __arm_dma_mmap() always return an
error if CONFIG_MMU
isn't defined.
That what I try to solve with this patch.
