Got it, thanks!

Do you mean a check for "req->mip_levels > 0" or for "req->mip_levels >= 0" ?

I glimpsed thru the code and I do not see problems with req->mip_levels being 0,
surely I may be mistaking.

Here, the check should be "> DRM_VMW_MAX_MIP_LEVELS" because req->mip_levels
is only for one layer.

Also, as long as we can doing a check, I would suggest we check for 0 as
well.
