[Intel-xe] [CI 06/10] drm/gpuvm: add an abstraction for a VM / BO combination

["Thomas Hellström" <thomas.hellstrom@linux.intel.com>]

From: Danilo Krummrich <dakr@redhat.com>

Add an abstraction layer between the drm_gpuva mappings of a particular
drm_gem_object and this GEM object itself. The abstraction represents a
combination of a drm_gem_object and drm_gpuvm. The drm_gem_object holds
a list of drm_gpuvm_bo structures (the structure representing this
abstraction), while each drm_gpuvm_bo contains list of mappings of this
GEM object.

This has multiple advantages:

1) We can use the drm_gpuvm_bo structure to attach it to various lists
   of the drm_gpuvm. This is useful for tracking external and evicted
   objects per VM, which is introduced in subsequent patches.

2) Finding mappings of a certain drm_gem_object mapped in a certain
   drm_gpuvm becomes much cheaper.

3) Drivers can derive and extend the structure to easily represent
   driver specific states of a BO for a certain GPUVM.

The idea of this abstraction was taken from amdgpu, hence the credit for
this idea goes to the developers of amdgpu.
