It would perhaps be nice if older gens which don't (yet) have
per-process pgtables to have gone with the userspace-replays (although
that would require a lot more tracking in userspace than what is done
currently).. but fortunately those older gens don't use "state
objects" which could potentially be corrupted, but instead re-emit
state in cmdstream, so there is a lot less possibility for bad
collateral damage.  (On all the gens we also use gpu read-only buffers
whenever the gpu does not need to be able to write them.)

For newer stuff, the process isolation works pretty well.  In fact we
recently changed MSM_PARAM_FAULTS to only report faults/hangs in the
same address space, so the compositor is not even aware (and doesn't
need to be aware).
