For the Screen Object display unit, we need to reserve a
guest-invisible region equal to the size of the framebuffer for
the host.  This region can only be reserved in VRAM, whereas
the guest-visible framebuffer can be reserved in either VRAM or
GMR.

As such priority should be given to the guest-invisible
region otherwise in a limited VRAM situation, we can fail to
allocate this region.

This patch makes it so that vmw_sou_backing_alloc() is called
before the framebuffer is pinned.
