Can vm_mmap()/vm_map_remove() be called with giant held? (linuxolator dvb patches)

Quoting Juergen Lock <nox at jelal.kn-bremen.de> (from Mon, 21 Feb 2011

>  And here comes the patch for head:

linux_dvb.h is still GPLed (not taking into account that there are  
voices which tell that interface descriptions are not copyrightable or  
something like this). As already told this is a no-go, the linuxulator  
is BSD licensed.

Bye,
Alexander.
