    drm/vmwgfx: Introduce a huge page aligning TTM range manager · 7546f7ff
    Thomas Hellstrom (VMware) authored
    Using huge page-table entries requires that the physical address of the
    start of a buffer object is huge page size aligned.
    Make a special version of the TTM range manager that accomplishes this,
    but falls back to a smaller page size alignment (PUD->PMD, PMD->NORMAL)
    to avoid eviction.
    If other drivers want to use it in the future, it can be made a
    TTM generic helper. Note that drivers can force eviction for a certain
    alignment by assigning the TTM GPU alignment correspondingly.
