I want to merge Mika's fixes for the reset stats ioctls, mostly since his
patches are older and we also have neat testcases for them all. Then we
can reconsider the issue here and how to best get at the right batch
buffers. If it breaks development just boot with ppgtt=1 for now, for
userspace nothing really changes compared to full ppgtt.
