Why do you want to allow multiple opens for a device? Is it not
sufficient to allow only one?

If userspace calls this path this will make all the addresses mapped
with DMA-API paths unusable by the device. This doesn't look like a sane
userspace interface.

For better and more in-depth review I suggest that you split up this
large patch into a series of smaler which implement specific aspects of
your work.

P.S.: I got these warning when applying your patches ...

And there are also some coding-style issues.
