+ * struct drm_i915_gem_mmap_offset - Retrieve an offset so we can mmap this buffer object.
+ *
+ * This struct is passed as argument to the `DRM_IOCTL_I915_GEM_MMAP_OFFSET` ioctl,
+ * and is used to retrieve the fake offset to mmap an object specified by &handle.
+ *
+ * The legacy way of using `DRM_IOCTL_I915_GEM_MMAP` is removed on gen12+.
+ * `DRM_IOCTL_I915_GEM_MMAP_GTT` is an older supported alias to this struct, but will behave
+ * as setting the &extensions to 0, and &flags to `I915_MMAP_OFFSET_GTT`.

+ * It is mandatory that one of the `MMAP_OFFSET` types
+ * should be included:
+ *
+ * - `I915_MMAP_OFFSET_GTT`: Use mmap with the object bound to GTT. (Write-Combined)
+ * - `I915_MMAP_OFFSET_WC`: Use Write-Combined caching.
+ * - `I915_MMAP_OFFSET_WB`: Use Write-Back caching.
+ * - `I915_MMAP_OFFSET_FIXED`: Use object placement to determine caching.
+ *
+ * On devices with local memory `I915_MMAP_OFFSET_FIXED` is the only valid
+ * type. On devices without local memory, this caching mode is invalid.
+ *
+ * As caching mode when specifying `I915_MMAP_OFFSET_FIXED`, WC or WB will
+ * be used, depending on the object placement on creation. WB will be used
+ * when the object can only exist in system memory, WC otherwise.
