Hi Stefanr,

Convert to use vm_insert_range_buggy to map range of kernel memory
to user vma.

This driver has ignored vm_pgoff and mapped the entire pages. We
could later "fix" these drivers to behave according to the normal
vm_pgoff offsetting simply by removing the _buggy suffix on the
function name and if that causes regressions, it gives us an easy
way to revert.

Can you please help to review this patch ?
