Note that objects that have LMEM in the allowed placement list, but are
migrated to SMEM for some reason (we haven't really decided the policy
for this yet, but perhaps for dma-buf export reasons or just being
evicted with smem as an allowable placement) will still be WC-only,
which was Daniel's recommendation to begin with, (but we can flip
caching mode on eviction / migration if we'd want to).

Currently we don't flip GEM region when evicting even if SMEM is an
allowed placement, because the object may then end up stuck in SMEM.
Not sure if we want to expose a user-space madvise-type hint for this?
