There's a pile of callbacks in drm_driver around gem object handling
which we want to move over to drm_gem_object_funcs. Patch 2 in this
series here has a pretty big doc update. The hooks have exactly the
same function signature (at least after this series) and semantics,
just stored somewhere else. For the drivers using helpers this should
amount to just creating an export default function table for
drm_gem_object_funcs and using it everywhere.

Aside: In general the chaotic pile of hooks in struct drm_driver is
largely deprecated. There's a few things where we don't yet have more
focused vtables.
