[PATCH] drm/amdgpu: check vm ready by evicting

Workstation application ANSA/META get this error dmesg:
[drm:amdgpu_gem_va_ioctl [amdgpu]] *ERROR* Couldn't update BO_VA (-16)

This is caused by:
1. create a 256MB buffer in invisible VRAM
2. CPU map the buffer and access it causes vm_fault and try to move
   it to visible VRAM
3. force visible VRAM space and traverse all VRAM bos to check if
   evicting this bo is valuable
4. when checking a VM bo (in invisible VRAM), amdgpu_vm_evictable()
   will set amdgpu_vm->evicting, but latter due to not in visible
   VRAM, won't really evict it so not add it to amdgpu_vm->evicted
5. before next CS to clear the amdgpu_vm->evicting, user VM ops
   ioctl will pass amdgpu_vm_ready() (check amdgpu_vm->evicted)
   but fail in amdgpu_vm_bo_update_mapping() (check
   amdgpu_vm->evicting) and get this error log

This error won't affect functionality as next CS will finish the
waiting VM ops. But we'd better clear the error log by check the
evicting flag which really stop VM ops latter.
