Mentioned this earlier in the series - you are assiging a devmem_fd to a
region which is a bit confusing.

I think the default (region unset) should be the VRAM closest to the GT
of the fault.

As mentioned in patch #27, I'm not sure this debug info is all that
useful.

Why (devmem_fd < 0) ? 0? I'm not following this.

Mentioned earlier in the series, I'm confused by migration_policy and it
also looks to be unused unless I'm missing something?
