Patch 1, 2, 3, 5 are

Reviewed-by: Junwei Zhang <Jerry.Zhang@amd.com>

Patch 4: comments inline.

BTW, a per-vm bo lru may be more efficient, but not a common way.
bulk move could improve that, while possibly there are some worse cases and better cases.

e.g. remark the bo position for target BO, like PD/PT bo and per-vm bo, in which range may include other BOs
If the target BO range include more other BOs, may cause evict or anything else low efficiency.
We hope target BO grouped together as much as possible, and be moved.
(if not, please correct me)

Jerry
