Yes, a choice needs to be made here. If TTM registers the shrinker, the
driver needs to be called at least to unbind and to remove dma-
mappings.

If the driver registers the shrinker it can still (I think) use the
pool helpers, but needs TTM for LRU traversal and accounting.

I can have a look at the latter if yout think that will be a better
solution.
