Yeah, no, that patch can't be right.

>From your build failure, your configuration has dma_addr_t being a
'long long unsigned int', and map->offset being a resource_size_t is
for just a 'unsigned int'. Casting 'unsigned int *' to 'unsigned long
long *' is not valid.

You'd have to do something like

        dma_addr_t temp;

and pass the address of *that* in, and then assign that to map->offset
(and verify that it fits), I think.

That's kind of what the old code did.

Or alternatively, the 'offset' field should just be of type
'dma_addr_t' instead (see include/drm/drm_legacy.h). But I didn't
check if something else wants it to be a resource_size_t.
