Well I'll be damned, that's an obvious bugfix, regardless of its effects 
on vgem unload. Please push that with a descriptive commit message and 
Reviewed-by: Petri Latvala <petri.latvala at intel.com>.

How should vgem work be flushed properly? With this i915 flushing is 
guaranteed even if vgem is opened first, then i915, but such flushing 
won't be done if only vgem is opened (I see only vgem_slow doing that)...

Jari will soon reply about vgem unload with this change applied.
