When pinning a buffer, we should check to see if there are any
additional restrictions imposed by bo->preferred_domains. This will
prevent the BO from being moved to an invalid domain when pinning.
For example, this can happen if the user requests to create a BO in GTT
domain for display scanout. amdgpu_dm will allow pinning to either VRAM
or GTT domains, since DCN can scanout from either or. However, in
amdgpu_bo_pin_restricted(), pinning to VRAM is preferred if there is
adequate carveout. This can lead to pinning to VRAM despite the user
requesting GTT placement for the BO.
v2: Allow the kernel to override the domain, which can happen when
exporting a BO to a V4L camera (for example).

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 Restructured Text 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.
