This looks useful.  I've already dropped that patch for the pending
resend.

I'll pick up the removal of the not needed addr argument for the patch
introducing nouveau_dmem_migrate_copy_one, thanks,

Nit: I find the &pfns[i] way to pass the argument a little weird to read.
Why not "pfns + i"?

Can we use struct_size here?

Given that nouveau_find_svmm doesn't take any kind of reference, what
gurantees svmm doesn't go away after dropping the lock?

nouveau_dmem.c and nouveau_svm.c are both built conditional on
CONFIG_DRM_NOUVEAU_SVM, so there is no need for stubs here.
