After adding debug logging to the nvidia kernel module's source-code - at every point in nv-map.c::nv_kern_mmap() where it sets an error in the 'status' variable - I have been able to pin-point where the allocation is being refused.

It is this code:

    vma->vm_ops = &nv_vm_ops;

    if (IS_REG_OFFSET(nv, NV_VMA_OFFSET(vma), NV_VMA_SIZE(vma)))
    {
        if (IS_BLACKLISTED_REG_OFFSET(nv, NV_VMA_OFFSET(vma), NV_VMA_SIZE(vma)))
        {
            nv_printf(NV_DBG_ERRORS,
                "NVRM: requested mapping blacklisted\n");
            status = -EINVAL;
            goto done;
        }

The integrated log output with smartdimmer that shows this:
