Ben Skeggs 2606f29162 drm/nouveau/mmu: support initialisation of client-managed address-spaces
NVKM is currently responsible for managing the allocation of a client's
GPU address-space, but there's various use-cases (ie. HMM address-space
mirroring) where giving a client more direct control is desirable.

This commit allows for a VMM to be created where the area allocated for
NVKM is limited to a client-specified window, the remainder of address-
space is controlled directly by the client.

Leaving a window is necessary to support various internal requirements,
but also to support existing allocation interfaces as not all of the HW
is capable of working with a HMM allocation.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
