[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 7/9] drm/i915: Make aliasing a 2nd class VM

[Ben Widawsky]

There is a good debate to be had about how best to fit the aliasing
PPGTT into the code. However, as it stands right now, getting aliasing
PPGTT bindings is a hack, and done through implicit arguments. To make
this absolutely clear, WARN and return an error if a driver writer tries
to do something they shouldn't.

I have no issue with an eventual revert of this patch. It makes sense
for what we have today.
