Throughout the code base, we use u32 for offsets into the global GTT. If
we ever see any hardware with a larger GGTT, then we run the real risk
of silent corruption. So test for our assumption up front so that we
have a nice reminder should the time come when it fails.

Assuming Mika's comment on 'struct i915_address_space' is correct:
...
	u64 start;              /* Start offset always 0 for dri2 */
...
otherwise this calculation would need to be adjusted.

LGTM.

From the earlier cut-n-paste,

(so I hope it still holds with the minor correction applied :)

The address_space start was for the obsolete UMS call where the xserver
would tell the kernel the range of the (then only global) GTT to use for
itself.

The vgpu plugin comes later? Though if I remember correctly, it reserves
ranges of the GGTT for itself rather than alter the drm_mm.

So I don't think it has been revitalised since. Removing the start value
from the struct i915_address_space confirms it is obsolete.

Yes. Please excuse the sucky review I gave to the original.
