Actually my knowledge stops where kernel begins. :-)
I think Suman Adak is listening and will get back to u at the earliest.
AFAIK mmap(2) will do what u want to do. Did you RTFM?
Once u setup the mapping then the kernel as well as user space can access the
relevant pages. after that your kernel code I think driver can do whatever it
wants with it.
