I understand the names are somewhat arbitrary, and the tier ID space
can be expanded down the line by bumping MAX_MEMORY_TIERS.
But starting out with a packed ID space can get quite awkward for
users when new tiers - especially intermediate tiers - show up in
existing configurations. I mentioned in the other email that DRAM !=
DRAM, so new tiers seem inevitable already.
It could make sense to start with a bigger address space and spread
out the list of kernel default tiers a bit within it:
MEMORY_TIER_GPU 0
MEMORY_TIER_DRAM 10
MEMORY_TIER_PMEM 20
