libdrm has supported the newer execbuffer2 ioctl and using it by default
when it exists since libdrm commit b50964027bef which landed Mar 2, 2010.
The i915 and i965 drivers in Mesa at the time both used libdrm and so
did the Intel X11 back-end. The SNA back-end for X11 has always used
execbuffer2.

This is really just an alias of mmap_gtt. The 'mmap offset' nomenclature
comes from the value returned by this ioctl which is the offset into the
device fd which userpace uses with mmap(2).
mmap_gtt was our initial mmap_offset implementation, this extends
our CPU mmap support to allow additional fault handlers that depends on
the object's backing pages.
Note that we multiplex mmap_gtt and mmap_offset through the same ioctl,
and use the zero extending behaviour of drm to differentiate between
them, when we inspect the flags.
To support multiple mmap types on an object we need to support multiple
mmap_offsets for an object (each offset in the global device address
space corresponding to a unique instance of the object for a file + mmap
type). As we drop the simplified drm core idea of a single mmap_offset,
we need to provide replacement hooks for the dumb mmap interface as
well.
