Yea. Unifying on the gem way of doing things isn't going to work very
well. We would have to keep the current way of doing things in the ttm
code, wrapped into "if (ttm_bo_uses_embedded_gem_object()) { ... }", to
not break vmwgfx.
So adding gem ttm helpers (where gem+ttm drivers can opt-in) looked like
the better way of handling this to me ...
cheers,
