+ * xe_ttm_bo_try_shrink - LRU walk helper to shrink a ttm buffer object.
+ * @walk: The struct xe_ttm_lru_walk that describes the walk.
+ * @bo: The buffer object.
+ * @purge: Whether to attempt to purge the bo content since it's no
+ * longer needed.
+ *
+ * The function uses the ttm_tt_back_up functionality to back up or
+ * purge a struct ttm_tt. If the bo is not in system, it's first
+ * moved there.
+ *
+ * Return: The number of pages shrunken or purged, or
+ * negative error code on failure.
