Internal gem objects will soon just be volatile system memory region

To enable this, create a separate dummy object creation function
for gen6 ppgtt
It's not clear from the commit message why we need a special case for
this. Could you describe more in detail?
it always was a special case, that used the internal backend but
provided it's own ops, so actually had no benefit from using the
internal backend. See b0b0f2d225da6fe58417fae37e3f797e2db27b62
I'll add some further explanation in the commit message for v2.
Thanks,
Thomas
