BO validation during vm_bind could trigger memory eviction when
system runs under memory pressure. Right now we blindly evict
BOs of all VMs. This scheme has a problem when system runs in
none recoverable page fault mode: even though the vm_bind could
be successful by evicting BOs, the later the rebinding of the
evicted BOs would fail. So it is better to report an out-of-
memory failure at vm_bind time than at time of rebinding where
xekmd currently doesn't have a good mechanism to report error
to user space.
This patch implemented a scheme to only evict objects of other
VMs during vm_bind time. Object of the same VM will skip eviction.
If we failed to find enough memory for vm_bind, we report error
to user space at vm_bind time.
This scheme is not needed for recoverable page fault mode under
what we can dynamically fault-in pages on demand.
