Hmm. Another sticking point if we want to use the union again.

How about obj->ops->flags & I915_GEM_OBJECT_HAS_BACKING_STORE ?
Or I915_GEM_OBJECT_CAN_SWAP since we want this for i915_gem_internal.c
as well, and that techinically doesn't have a backing store but can be
reaped. Hmm.

if (!(obj->ops->flags & I915_GEM_OBJECT_HAS_BACKING_STORE ||
      obj->mm.madv == I915_MADV_DONTNEED))
