+ * IOSYS_MAP_INIT_OFFSET - Initializes struct iosys_map from another iosys_map
+ * @map_:	The dma-buf mapping structure to copy from
+ * @offset_:	Offset to add to the other mapping
+ *
+ * Initializes a new iosys_map struct based on another passed as argument. It
+ * does a shallow copy of the struct so it's possible to update the back storage
+ * without changing where the original map points to. It is the equivalent of
+ * doing:
+ *
+ * .. code-block: c
+ *
+ *	iosys_map map = other_map;
+ *	iosys_map_incr(&map, &offset);
+ *
+ * Example usage:
+ *
+ * .. code-block: c
+ *
+ *	void foo(struct device *dev, struct iosys_map *base_map)
+ *	{
+ *		...
+ *		struct iosys_map map = IOSYS_MAP_INIT_OFFSET(base_map, FIELD_OFFSET);
+ *		...
+ *	}
+ *
+ * The advantage of using the initializer over just increasing the offset with
+ * ``iosys_map_incr()`` like above is that the new map will always point to the
+ * right place of the buffer during  its scope. It reduces the risk of updating
+ * the wrong part of the buffer and having no compiler warning about that. If
+ * the assignment to IOSYS_MAP_INIT_OFFSET() is forgotten, the compiler can warn
+ * using a uninitialized variable.
