drm/nouveau: embed gem object in nouveau_bo
There is no reason to keep the gem object separately allocated. nouveau is
the last user of gem_obj->driver_private, so if we embed it, we can get
rid of 8bytes per gem-object.
The implementation follows the radeon driver. bo->gem is only valid, iff
the bo was created via the gem helpers _and_ iff the user holds a valid
gem reference. That is, as the gem object holds a reference to the
nouveau_bo. If you use nouveau_ref() to gain a bo reference, you are not
guaranteed to also hold a gem reference. The gem object might get
destroyed after the last user drops the gem-ref via
drm_gem_object_unreference(). Use drm_gem_object_reference() to gain a
gem-reference.
For debugging, we can use bo->gem.filp != NULL to test whether a gem-bo is
valid. However, this shouldn't be used for real functionality to avoid
gem-internal dependencies.
Note that the implementation follows the previous style. However, we no
longer can check for bo->gem != NULL to test for a valid gem object. This
wasn't done before, so we should be safe now.
