We have added a concept similar to this in drm_gpuvm [1]. GPUVM
maintains a list of evicted BOs and when the GPUVM is locked for
submission it has validate vfunc which is called on each BO. If driver
is using TTM, this is where the driver would call TTM BO validate which
unevicts the BO. Well at least this what we do it Xe [2].

The uneviction is a per VM operation not a global one. With this, a
global eviction list does not seem correct (admittedly not through the
entire series).
