[PATCH v4 4/8] drm/i915: add gen6 ppgtt dummy creation function

Internal gem objects will soon just be volatile system memory region
objects.
To enable this, create a separate dummy object creation function
for gen6 ppgtt. The object only exists as a fake object pointing to ggtt
and gains no benefit in going via the internal backend.
Instead, create a dummy gem object and avoid having to maintain a custom
ops api in the internal backend, which makes later refactoring easier.
