Since the guc allocates and pins and object into the GGTT for its usage,
it is more natural to use that pinned VMA as our resource cookie.

Well it isn't really any more natural, as we hardly ever care about the mapping, whereas we more frequently work with the object. So it just seems to introduce an unnecessary extra level of indirection as we go from vma to object to whatever we really want.

It is completely unnecessary (and undesirable) to rename this local. A variable called 'obj' could be any sort of an object, but we know that we are dealing with *here* is a *specific* object that holds the pages of GuC log data, so it should have it a name that tells us so.

Insufficient abstraction.

If you want VMAs to be a primary sort of thing for code that isn't primarily about mappings to nonetheless work with, there should be an abstraction layer (macros or trivial inline accessors) to retrieve the things that code cares about from the 'VMA'.

I think this is a very ugly way of hiding the clearing of the pointers.
If you want to manage references like this, it could *possibly* be a macro:

	guc_release_vma(ZAP_AFTER_USE(guc->log));

*without* the '&' so the argument has to be an lvalue; or it could more clearly be done by having the releasing function take a pointer to the pointer-to-object, which it would clear after releasing the object and before returning to the caller.

	guc_release_vma_ref(&guc->ads);	// also clears guc->ads

But I think even that is not as good as explicitly clearing the pointer immediately after the call to release(). If K&R had thought having a way to implicitly clear a pointer after using it was a good idea, they'd have put it into the language:

	struct foo *new = *saved!;	// Dereference & clear 'saved'

But they didn't, so we probably shouldn't invent one.

Summary: I'm not totally opposed to using VMAs more generally, but here there just seem to be extra costs with no offsetting advantages; and the details of some of the above changes are just plain ugly.

If the naming and abstraction issues were resolved, the remaining conversions would not in themselves be too objectionable, because either
* the extra cycles don't matter (in rarely executed code), or
* we can add extra direct pointers or other cached values in the top-level data structures to avoid deep memory chains where necessary.
