Jerome Glisse c919b371cb drm/radeon/kms: avoid corner case issue with unmappable vram V2
We should not allocate any object into unmappable vram if we
have no means to access them which on all GPU means having the
CP running and on newer GPU having the blit utility working.

This patch limit the vram allocation to visible vram until
we have acceleration up and running.

Note that it's more than unlikely that we run into any issue
related to that as when acceleration is not woring userspace
should allocate any object in vram beside front buffer which
should fit in visible vram.

V2 use real_vram_size as mc_vram_size could be bigger than
   the actual amount of vram

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
