For drm_is_gem_vram(), I'm not quite sure what else to test for. So
there are still a few things I'd like to discuss.

 1) If this test is about the placement flags, then it's unrelated to
the actual DRM driver. All buffers of type |struct drm_gem_vram_object|
share the same placement flags.

 2) I tested the code to work with ast and mgag200.

 3) If this test is really about individual instances of each DRM
driver, then the current implementations are already broken. In this
scenario TTM should sort out BOs with a BO device different from the one
that triggered the eviction process; or pass the original BO device to
the evict_flags callback, so we can sort out buffers here.

Best regards
Thomas
