I still think it is incorrect as the limitation is purely an issue with
the shmem backend and not a generic GEM limitation. It matters if you
have a history of passing names and want a consistent api across objects
when the apps themselves no longer can tell the difference, and
certainly do not have access to the dmabuf fd. i915 provides an indirect
mmap interface that uses the dma mapping regardless of source.
