/* To make things as simple as possible (ie. no refcounting), a VMA's lifetime
/**
* A VMA represents a GEM BO that is bound into an address space. Therefore, a
* VMA's presence cannot be guaranteed before binding, or after unbinding the
* object into/from the address space.
*
* To make things as simple as possible (ie. no refcounting), a VMA's lifetime
* will always be <= an objects lifetime. So object refcounting should cover us.
