drm/imagination: Improve some logging in error paths
This commit adds drm_err() messages when attempting to map an already mapped
firmware object, unmap an already unmapped firmware object, or provide too
few DMA address slots for the MIPS firmware page table.

[Severity: Medium]
Should pvr_vm_get_pt_phys_addrs() check and log
PVR_MIPSFW_MAX_NUM_PAGETABLE_PAGES instead of ARRAY_SIZE(vm_data->pt_pages)?
In drivers/gpu/drm/imagination/pvr_vm_mips.c, vm_data->pt_pages and
vm_data->pt_dma_addr are sized by PVR_MIPS_PT_PAGE_COUNT, which is the number
of host PAGE_SIZE pages:
#define PVR_MIPS_PT_PAGE_COUNT \
DIV_ROUND_UP(PVR_MIPSFW_MAX_NUM_PAGETABLE_PAGES * PVR_MIPSFW_PAGE_SIZE_4K, PAGE_SIZE)
However, phys_addrs and max_num_addrs are in units of 4K firmware pages
(PVR_MIPSFW_PAGE_SIZE_4K), as seen in the loop immediately following this
check:
for (u32 page_nr = 0; page_nr < max_num_addrs; page_nr++) {
/* Firmware expects 4k pages, but host page size might be different. */
u32 src_page_nr = (page_nr * PVR_MIPSFW_PAGE_SIZE_4K) >> PAGE_SHIFT;
u32 page_offset = (page_nr * PVR_MIPSFW_PAGE_SIZE_4K) & ~PAGE_MASK;
phys_addrs[page_nr] = vm_data->pt_dma_addr[src_page_nr] + page_offset;
}
On a host with 16K or 64K pages, ARRAY_SIZE(vm_data->pt_pages) is 1 while
PVR_MIPSFW_MAX_NUM_PAGETABLE_PAGES is 4, so a max_num_addrs of 1 to 3 would
pass the check and receive an incomplete page table, or log that a minimum of
1 page is required when 4 DMA address slots are needed.
Also, because max_num_addrs is a signed int compared against unsigned types
and used as the loop bound instead of PVR_MIPSFW_MAX_NUM_PAGETABLE_PAGES,
could a negative max_num_addrs or a value greater than
PVR_MIPSFW_MAX_NUM_PAGETABLE_PAGES cause src_page_nr to read out of bounds
from vm_data->pt_dma_addr[]?
