I haven't tested this, but I'm fairly certain it should be fine - gem objects
already have their own drm_gem_object_funcs, and all of these callbacks are
concerned with driver-wide gem hooks that expect the default gem object type
that the driver uses. If I did things properly, it should only really be
possible to create a driver-private GEM object from within the driver -
meaning that none of these callbacks will ever be invoked for one and can be
safely ignored there.

TBH - on the nova side we decided that I shouldn't spend too much time on this
aspect of the gem patch series since I don't think any driver has an immediate
usecase for driver-private object GEM types. So if we'd rather consider this
patch in the future vs. now I'm totally fine with that.
