You forgot to gc this function here ^^

Not peeked ahead, but I'm really hoping intel_context_set_gem gets removed
eventually too ...

I think we need to put these somewhere else now, here it's just plain
lost. I think in the kerneldoc for
drm_i915_gem_context_create_ext_setparam would be best, with the #define
right above and in the kerneldoc an enumeration of all the values and what
they're for.

I think I'll need to sign up Matt B or you for doing some kerneldoc polish
on these so they're all collected together.
