[RFC PATCH 4/5] drm: Add memory cgroup registration and DRIVER_CGROUPS feature bit

With new cgroups per-device framework, registration with memory cgroup
subsystem can allow us to enforce limit for allocation of device memory
against process cgroups.
This patch adds new driver feature bit, DRIVER_CGROUPS, such that DRM
will register the device with cgroups. Doing so allows device drivers to
charge memory allocations to device-specific state within the cgroup.
Note, this is only for GEM objects allocated from device memory.
Memory charging for GEM objects using system memory is already handled
by the mm subsystem charing the normal (non-device) memory cgroup.
To charge device memory allocations, we need to (1) identify appropriate
cgroup to charge (currently decided at object creation time), and (2)
make the charging call at the time that memory pages are being allocated.
Above is one policy, and this is open for debate if this is the right
choice.
For (1), we associate the current task's cgroup with GEM objects as they
are created. That cgroup will be charged/uncharged for all paging
activity against the GEM object. Note, if the process is not part of a
memory cgroup, then this returns NULL and no charging will occur.
For shared objects, this may make the charge against a cgroup that is
potentially not the same cgroup as the process using the memory. Based
on the memory cgroup's discussion of "memory ownership", this seems
acceptable [1]. For (2), this is for device drivers to implement within
appropriate page allocation logic.
