drm/gem-vram: Support pinning buffers to current location
Pinning a buffer prevents it from being moved to a different memory
location. For some operations, such as buffer updates, it is not
important where the buffer is located. Setting the pin function's
pl_flag argument to 0 will pin the buffer to whereever it is stored.
v2:
* document pin flags in PRIME pin helper
