This is probably a stupid question... what do you need VRAM for
anyways? In _theory_ it's an abstraction to talk about memory that's
not accessible by the CPU. This is obviously not the case here, and
presumably the GPU can access all the memory in the system, so it can
be all treated as "GART" memory... AFAIK all accesses are behind the
in-GPU MMU, so contiguous physical memory isn't an issue either. In
practice, I suspect nouveau automatically sticks certain things into
vram (gpuobj's), but it should be feasible to make them optionally use
GART memory when VRAM is not available. I haven't really looked at the
details though, perhaps that's a major undertaking.
