I haven't read the patch series, and I'm not taking a position one way
or the other on whether this is better implemented as a shmem addition
or a shim that asks shmem for memory. Page migration can be done for
driver memory by using PageMovable. I just rewrote how it works, so
the details are top of my mind at the moment if anyone wants something
explained. Commit 68f2736a8583 is the key one to look at.
