We actually *don't* want consistent naming here since these are
completely different things.  GGTT_BIT indicates that the object is
intended to be bound into the GGTT's address space, whereas PPGTT_BIT
indicates that the object *is* the PPGTT.  Maybe I should rename this
one to XE_BO_PAGETABLE_BIT or something to make them less similar.
