mainlining shenanigans

This ioctl will allow us to purge inactive userspace buffers when the system is running out of contiguous memory. For now, the purge logic is rather dumb in that it does not try to release only the amount of BO needed to meet the last CMA alloc request but instead purges all objects placed in the purgeable pool as soon as we experience a CMA allocation failure. Note that the in-kernel BO cache is always purged before the purgeable cache because those objects are known to be unused while objects marked as purgeable by a userspace application/library might have to be restored when they are marked back as unpurgeable, which can be expensive.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
