Yes, for sparc that path (proc mmap) is broken, but only according to
code checking.

The reason for the problem is not discovered is that seem all users
(other than x86) are not
use proc_mmap ?

vma->vm_pgoff is that code segment is User/BAR value >> PAGE_SHIFT.
pci_start is resource->start >> PAGE_SHIFT.

For sparc, resource start is different from BAR start aka pci bus address.
pci bus address add offset to be the resource start.

Thanks
