   drm: manager to keep track of GPUs VA mappings

I have tested the drm GPUVA manager as part of using it with our new
driver.  The link below shows use of the drm_gpuva_sm_[un]map()
functions.  I think this is based on the v3 patches, but I have also
tried it locally using v4 patches.  We will be submitting this
driver for review soon.

That's awesome - thank your for taking the effort!

In a previous incarnation, I used the drm_gpuva_insert() and
drm_gpuva_remove() functions directly.  In some now abandoned work I
used the drm_gpuva_sm_[un]map_ops_create() route.

The only problem I encountered along the way was the maple tree init
issue already reported by Boris and fixed in v4.  One caveat - as
our driver is a work in progress our testing is limited to certain
Sascha Willem tests.

I did find it quite difficult to get the prealloc route with
drm_gpuva_sm_[un]map() working.  I'm not sure to what degree this
reflects me being a novice on matters DRM, but I did find myself
wishing for more direction, even with Boris's help.

I'm definitely up improving the existing documentation. Anything in particular you think should be described in more detail?
