[PATCH v3 3/3] drm/vram: Implement lazy unmapping for GEM VRAM buffers

[Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de>]

Frequent mapping and unmapping a buffer object adds overhead for
modifying the page table and creates debug output. Unmapping a buffer
is only required when the memory manager evicts the buffer from its
current location.
