drm/nouveau: new VM_BIND uAPI interfaces
This commit provides the interfaces for the new UAPI motivated by the
Vulkan API. It allows user mode drivers (UMDs) to:
1) Initialize a GPU virtual address (VA) space via the new
DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_VM_INIT ioctl. UMDs can provide a kernel reserved
VA area.
2) Bind and unbind GPU VA space mappings via the new
DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_VM_BIND ioctl.
3) Execute push buffers with the new DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_EXEC ioctl.
Both, DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_VM_BIND and DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_EXEC support
asynchronous processing with DRM syncobjs as synchronization mechanism.
The default DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_VM_BIND is synchronous processing,
DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_EXEC supports asynchronous processing only.
