[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v4 13/14] drm/i915/ttm: make evicted shmem pages visible to the shrinker

[Matthew Auld]

We currently just evict lmem objects to system memory when under memory
pressure. For this case we lack the usual object mm.pages, which
effectively hides the pages from the i915-gem shrinker, until we
actually "attach" the TT to the object, or in the case of lmem-only
objects it just gets migrated back to lmem when touched again. For such
cases we can make the object visible as soon as we populate the TT with
shmem pages, and then hide it again when doing the unpopulate.
