svm_range_dma_map_dev has the is_zone_device_page(hmm_pfn_to_page(...)) 
check already. Always counting VRAM pages in svm_range_dma_map_dev would 
be trivial. Adding a condition would only make it slower.

Whether or not use use the vram_pages count in the end is a different 
matter. But I think just unconditionally adding vram_pages++ in 
svm_range_dma_map_dev would have negligible overhead.
