For discrete, use TTM for both cached and WC system memory. That means we currently rely on the TTM memory accounting / shrinker. For cached system memory we should consider remaining shmem-backed, which can be implemented from our ttm_tt_populate callback. We can then also reuse our own very elaborate shrinker for that memory. If an object is evicted to a gem allowable region, we will now consider the object migrated, and we flip the gem region and move the object to a different region list. Since we are now changing gem regions, we can't any longer rely on the CONTIGUOUS flag being set based on the region min page size, so remove that flag update. If we want to reintroduce it, we need to put it in the mutable flags.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
