Question for Danilo and probably others: Does Nouveau make use of the 
duplicate tracking at some point?

Background is that I only have two or three use cases for this in 
radeon/amdgpu and would like to make it an optional feature.

Going to take a look at the rest of this series next week.

Regards,
Christian.
