Since tweaking i915_vma_compare() we allowed constructors to skip
clearing the ggtt_view believing that we didn't access the unused
members. That, as it turns out, was not entirely true. In particular,
i915_gem_fault() uses
ret = remap_io_mapping(area,
area->vm_start + (vma->ggtt_view.partial.offset << PAGE_SHIFT),
(ggtt->mappable_base + vma->node.start) >> PAGE_SHIFT,
min_t(u64, vma->size, area->vm_end - area->vm_start),
&ggtt->mappable);
i.e. the ggtt_view.partial for both normal and partial views. If we
allowed garbage into the normal vma->ggtt_view and then try userspace
tried to mmap it, we could explode in an unobvious fashion.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
