struct amdgpu_fpriv for vram_lost_counter is proper place, especially 
for ioctl return value.
if you need to reset ctx one by one, we can mark all contexts of that 
vm, and then reset by userspace.

VM page table will recover by vm shadow BOs.

Totally agree, if you can help to do this in userspace, I'd like to 
support you from kernel side, or Christian.
