Add a helper to check if the memory stats is zero, this will be used

Could use mem_is_zero() for some value of source/binary compactness.
Yeah, the patch set started out with that when it's just a function
in amdgpu, but Christ didn't like it.
Okay, I don't feel so strongly about the implementation details.
mem_is_zero() just has the tendency to randomly fail when the compiler
adds padding in between fields.
+EXPORT_SYMBOL(drm_memory_stats_is_zero);

I am not a huge fan of adding this as an interface as the only
caller appears to be a
sanity check in amdgpu_vm_fini():
if (!amdgpu_vm_stats_is_zero(vm))
dev_err(adev->dev, "VM memory stats is non-zero when
fini\n");
But I guess there is some value in sanity checking since amdgpu does
not have a
notion of debug only code (compiled at production and exercised via
a test suite).
I do suggest to demote the dev_err to notice log level would suffice
and be more
accurate.
I think it's very important to have a check like this when we have a
known invariant, especially in this case where there's stat tracking
code spread out everywhere and we have very little chance of catching
a bug right when it happened. And since whenever this check fails we
know for sure there is a bug, I don't see the harm of keeping it as
an error.
It would indeed be a programming error if it can happen, but from the
point of view of a driver and system log I think a warning is actually
right.
Yeah agree, an error usually means you have either done something wrong
or your data is corrupted because something bad happened (failed disk
etc...).
The the stats are nonsense that is annoying but not fatal, so not really
an error.

Now that I think about it, I probably want to have the process & task
name in here to aid in reproduction.
