I'll change the return code in gem_object_bind_to_vm instead.

These subtests use objs tiling x/y, so the driver won't use partial views.

Should it be better if i915_gem_mmap_gtt checks for this (obj size 
bigger than apperture and some tiling mode), and return an error at that 
point? Instead of waiting for the sigbus error in gem_fault.
