Ah, good point, didn't think of that.

This would also need to be checked in the AMDGPU_GEM_OP_SET_PLACEMENT
case of amdgpu_gem_op_ioctl, otherwise userspace can change
prefered_domains to AMDGPU_GEM_DOMAIN_VRAM, and using the BO for GPU
operations may move it to VRAM.

Or maybe there's a central place which can catch both of these cases
(and any others).
