Hi guys,
just another TTM feature which is only used by nouveau.
We have this bo->bo.persistent_swap_storage pointer which is only set by nouveau to the GEM filp and used when a BO is swapped to a shmem file.
As far as I can see this doesn't make any sense at all? What is the background here.
Thanks, Christian.

No specific reason I can remember, likely cargo-cult from very very early versions of TTM/GEM stuff.

Ok, going to send something out to drop this then.
Thanks, Christian.
