I can try. How do I get a page pointer from a dma_addr_t?

You don't - you get it from using virt_to_page on the pointer returned
from dma_alloc_noncoherent. That beind said to keep the API sane I
should probably add a wrapper that does that for you.

I tested using:

ret = dma_mmap_pages(cma_obj->base.dev->dev,
vma, vma->vm_end - vma->vm_start,
virt_to_page(cma_obj->vaddr));

It works fine.

I think I can use remap_pfn_range() for now, and switch to your new API once it's available in drm-misc-next.
