Thanks for the review.

Alloc_threshold was removed, and the current patch (in drm-next)
replaced it with a placement flag. So now that logic is in the driver.

Making the pqueue a per-type option would certainly work, I'll edit it
to do so. I don't see why it would improve GTT or SYSTEM given their
perf characteristics, but I suppose future devices can always do weird
things.
