ah, I did not know that.
I wanted it just to enable parity with a selftest that checks whether a 
range is allocated before initializing a given range with test data 
behind the allocator's back. It needs to check the range so that it 
doesn't destroy in use data.

I suppose we could add another drm_mm range tracker just for testing and 
shadow track each allocation in the range, but that seemed like a lot of 
extra infrastructure for no general runtime use.

would you mind explaining the rationale for removing range checks? It 
seems to me like a natural fit for a memory manager
