drm_clflush_virt_range(), which ends with an unconditional
clflushopt(end - 1). For an empty range that is the byte before the
mapping, and abo->mem.kva comes from vmap(), so the access lands in the
guard page below the vmalloc area and faults:

Any process that can open the render node can do this. Reproduced 3 of 3
times on a Strix Point NPU (1022:17f0), by calling SYNC_BO with size 0 on
an AMDXDNA_BO_SHARE object. The import arm takes the same request but
flushes the whole scatterlist, so it survives it.
Nothing needs flushing for an empty range, so answer before choosing a
path.

Trees before amdxdna_flush_bo() existed carry the same call inline in
amdxdna_drm_sync_bo_ioctl(), with args->size passed to
drm_clflush_virt_range() unclamped, so a backport wants the guard at that
call site instead.
