OK I fixed.

I am sorry but I do not understand how CMA, dmabuf and GEM play
together to decode this and figure out what to do.

Do you mean that if we find device assigned memory, i.e. that there
is this special memory which is all the controller can scan out,
I should just implement .gem_prime_impport() instead of the
currently assigned drm_gem_prime_import() to something just
returning return ERR_PTR(-EINVAL); so it always fails?

What about .gem_prime_import_sg_table()? Exporting should
work fine since the memory is always readable by CPU.

Yours,
