Make vmwgfx go through the dma-buf interface to map/unmap imported buffers. The driver used to try to directly manipulate external buffers, assuming that everything that was coming to it had to live in cpu accessible memory. While technically true because what's in the vms is controlled by us, it's semantically completely broken. Fix importing of external buffers by forwarding all memory access requests to the importer. Tested by the vmw_prime basic_vgem test.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
