The migrate_vma helper is only used by noveau to migrate device private
pages around.  Other HMM_MIRROR users like amdgpu or infiniband don't
need it.

Yes, the thing that calls migrate_vma() should be the thing that has
the kconfig stuff.

For those who have out of tree drivers that need migrate_vma(), but are not
Nouveau, could we pretty please allow a way to select that independently?

It's not a big deal, as I expect the Nouveau option will normally be selected, 
but it would be nice. Because there is a valid configuration that involves 
Nouveau not being selected, but our driver still wanting to run.

Maybe we can add something like this on top of what you have?

No.  The whole point is to not build this fairly big chunk of code in
unless we have a user in the tree.
