When migrating to device private memory, setting the src_owner lets the caller
know about source pages that are already migrated and skips pages migrated to a
different device similar to pages swapped out an actual swap device.
But, it prevents normal pages from being migrated to device private memory.
It can still be useful for the driver to know that a page is owned by a
different device if it has a device to device way of migrating data.
nouveau_dmem_migrate_vma() isn't setting args.src_owner so only normal pages
will be migrated which I guess is OK for now since nouveau doesn't handle
direct GPU to GPU migration currently.

When migrating device private memory to system memory due to a CPU fault,
the source page should be the device's device private struct page so if it
isn't, then it does make sense to not migrate whatever normal page is there.
nouveau_dmem_migrate_to_ram() sets src_owner so this case looks OK.

Just had to think this through.
