Helping Wine use 64 bit Mesa OGL drivers for 32-bit Windows applications

Wait, apparently this was fully merged in kernel 5.13? The man page is simply out of date. https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/a4609387859f0281951f5e476d9f76d7fb9...

Oh interesting, thanks for looking into this guys. As far as I 
understand it though, this is still not duplicating the mapping, but 
setting up a fault handler at the original address to manage access. I 
don't think we'd want this since when wine remaps the page/s hosting a 
given buffer it also forces all other resources mapped to the same 
page/s to go through this presumably slow fault handler. Am I missing 
something?
