The existing ABI says that scanouts are pinned into the mappable region
so that legacy clients (e.g. old Xorg or plymouthd) can write directly
into the scanout through a GTT mapping. However if the surface does not
fit into the mappable region, we are better off just trying to fit it
anywhere and hoping for the best. (Any userspace that is cappable of
using ginormous scanouts is also likely not to rely on pure GTT
updates.) In the future, there may even be a kernel mediated method for
the legacy clients.
v2: Skip fence pinning when not mappable.
