I915_DISPATCH_SECURE is a special case. If we see the flag, we look up
the GGTT offset as opposed to the offset in the VM being used at
execbuf. We can either bind the batchbuffer into both the PPGTT, and
GGTT, or it's only even in the GGTT - in either case, we'll have to have
done the bind (and found space in the drm_mm). It just seems like this
is duplicating the already existing i915_gem_object_bind_to_vm code
that's in place.

Sorry if I am not following what you're asking. I'm just failing to see
a problem, or maybe you're just trying to solve problems that I haven't
yet conceived; or solved in a different way.  It's pretty darn hard to
discuss this given the piecemeal nature of the thing.
