[RFC PATCH 0/7] drm/amdgpu: add MMIO-remap singleton BO for HDP flush

This series introduces a kernel-managed singleton BO representing the
MMIO-remap (HDP flush) page and exposes it to userspace through a new
GEM domain.

Design ------
- A tiny (1-page) TTM bucket is introduced for AMDGPU_PL_MMIO_REMAP
  (mirroring doorbells).
- A singleton BO is created during amdgpu_ttm_init() and freed at
  fini().
- The BO is kernel-owned and never evicted.
- amdgpu_gem_create_ioctl() recognizes the new GEM domain bit
  (AMDGPU_GEM_DOMAIN_MMIO_REMAP) and returns a handle to the pre-created
singleton BO, enforcing size/alignment checks.
- Userspace thus gets a stable GEM handle and can mmap it to issue HDP
  flushes.

* Only compilation tested so far (x86_64, defconfig + amdgpu enabled).
* No runtime validation yet.
