right, I thought "drm-memory-memory" sounded silly, and otherwise
"memory" fit elsewhere as below, so "memory" seemed like a reasonable

for now, simply to avoid showing fields for drivers which don't
support the vfunc.. it could be made more fine grained later if the
need arises.

it is the other way around.. if it isn't backed by pages (ie. already
purged, etc) it shouldn't count as purgeable

hmm, >4GB VRAM on 32b system? Seems dubious but I guess u64 would be
fine too...

I guess personal preference, #define's have no type so they aren't
linked to the variable

Probably doesn't need to be per object, but putting it in obj vfuncs
lets the driver keep it static in their foo_gem_stuff.c

yup, this was the intent w/ drm_print_memory_stats()
