It's not supported to specify more than one of those flags.
So it never made sense to make this a flag in the first place.
Nuke the flags and specify directly which memory type to use.

This allows drivers to specify if they need a contiguous allocation or not.

Instead of keeping a bunch of potentially unused flags, just define
the start for private memory types and remove the rest.

Clients like i915 need to segregate cache domains within the GTT which
can lead to small amounts of fragmentation. By allocating the uncached
buffers from the bottom and the cacheable buffers from the top, we can
reduce the amount of wasted space and also optimize allocation of the
mappable portion of the GTT to only those buffers that require CPU
access through the GTT.
For other drivers, allocating small bos from one end and large ones
from the other helps improve the quality of fragmentation.
Based on drm_mm work by Chris Wilson.

TTM is a GPU memory manager subsystem designed for use with GPU
devices with various memory types (On-card VRAM, AGP,
PCI apertures etc.). It's essentially a helper library that assists
the DRM driver in creating and managing persistent buffer objects.
TTM manages placement of data and CPU map setup and teardown on
data movement. It can also optionally manage synchronization of
data on a per-buffer-object level.
TTM takes care to provide an always valid virtual user-space address
to a buffer object which makes user-space sub-allocation of
big buffer objects feasible.
TTM uses a fine-grained per buffer-object locking scheme, taking
care to release all relevant locks when waiting for the GPU.
Although this implies some locking overhead, it's probably a big
win for devices with multiple command submission mechanisms, since
the lock contention will be minimal.
TTM can be used with whatever user-space interface the driver
chooses, including GEM. It's used by the upcoming Radeon KMS DRM driver
and is also the GPU memory management core of various new experimental
DRM drivers.
