Reasonable. I do value the shorthand to_ggtt() though. Ok, the shorthand
can wait until we have more use cases.

Sorry. Should have double checked with your patch.

It's vmap underneath. My thinking here was that if we couldn't allocate
a new ioremap_wc, the obvious candidates were to reap everything inside
the GGTT i.e. inactive ioremap_wc.

But the question is, do we want to reap vma->iomaps upon vmap_purge.
Yes, we probably should - simplest will be to do a similar forced GGTT
eviction from vmap_purge and refine from there.

I know, I tell everyone else off for doing it like this as well.
Practice what you preach!
