This commit adds a new flag, devmem_only, to the drm_gpusvm structure. The
purpose of this flag is to ensure that the get_pages function allocates
memory exclusively from the device's memory. If the allocation from
device memory fails, the function will return an -EFAULT error.
Required for shared CPU and GPU atomics on certain devices.
v3:
- s/vram_only/devmem_only/
Fixes: 99624bdff8 ("drm/gpusvm: Add support for GPU Shared Virtual Memory")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
