drm/ttm: stop setting page->index for the ttm_tt
In commit: commit 58aa6622 Author: Thomas Hellstrom <thellstrom@vmware.com> Date: Fri Jan 3 11:47:23 2014 +0100 drm/ttm: Correctly set page mapping and -index members we started setting the page->mapping and page->index to point to the virtual address space, if the pages were faulted with TTM. Apparently this was needed for core-mm to able to reverse lookup the virtual address given the struct page, and potentially unmap it from the page tables. However as pointed out by Thomas, since we are now using PFN_MAP, instead of say PFN_MIXED, this should no longer be the case. There was also apparently some usecase in vmwgfx which needed this for dirty tracking, but that also doesn't appear to be the case anymore, as pointed out by Thomas. We still need keep the page->mapping for now, since that is still needed for different reasons, but we try to address that in the next patch.
