Both Mesa drivers would probably set that flag if we had it and it
demonstrated any perf benefits, FWIW.  However, I think it's fine if
that's a separate flag.  Also, I don't know that the perf benefits are
all that great.  We should get most of those benefits from VM_BIND
anyway.

I don't care.  I've already reviewed the patch.
