Acquiring the backing struct pages for the userptr range is not free;
the first client for userptr would insist on frequently creating userptr
objects ahead of time and not use them. For that first client, deferring
the cost of populating the userptr (calling get_user_pages()) to the
actual execbuf was a substantial improvement. However, not all clients
are the same, and most would like to validate that the userptr is valid
and backed by struct pages upon creation, so offer a
I915_USERPTR_POPULATE flag to do just that.
Note that big difference between I915_USERPTR_POPULATE and the deferred
scheme is that POPULATE is guaranteed to be synchronous, the result is
known before the ioctl returns (and the handle exposed). However, due to
system memory pressure, the object may be paged out before use,
requiring them to be paged back in on execbuf (as may always happen).
