Memory types are either fixed (on-card or pre-bound AGP) or not fixed
(dynamically bound) to an aperture. They also carry information about:
1) Whether they can be mapped cached.
2) Whether they are at all mappable.
3) Whether they need an ioremap to be accessible from kernel space.
In this way VRAM memory and, for example, pre-bound AGP appear
identical to the memory manager.
This also makes support for unmappable VRAM simple to implement.
driver we're on.
Avoid global cache flushes before inserting pages.
In general, they are never mapped, and not accessed through the kernel map, so
a cache flush should not be necessary. The exception is pages that are bound
cached. We might need a cache flush for those.
Fix buffer bound caching policy changing, Allow
on-the-fly changing of caching policy on bound buffers if the hardware
supports it.
Allow drivers to use driver-specific AGP memory types for TTM AGP pages.
Will make AGP drivers much easier to migrate.
