[Devel] [PATCH hci-8.1 0/6] cgroup/dmem: backport fixes and apply a lower dmem.max at once

[Konstantin Khorenko]

Applying with these fixes on my side:
- a Feature: line in every patch, "Feature: fix ms/cgroup" in patches
  1-4 and 6, "Feature: fix ms/drm" in patch 5;
- patch 6: rewrote the rebase note. It now has one paragraph on what is
  taken and why the old write changed nothing, one on what is left out
  and why, and a per-driver list of what a lower dmem.max does now. It
  also says that TTM evicts only when an allocation has no other
  placement, not at every next allocation.

Thanks. One more upstream stable fix for the same code applies here:
e773798e14ac0 ("drm/amdgpu: Fix init ordering in
amdgpu_vram_mgr_init()"). amdgpu_vram_mgr_init() registers the dmem
region before the lists and the buddy allocator are set up, so a
failed registration at probe makes amdgpu_vram_mgr_fini() walk
uninitialised lists. I created a bug for it, please send the backport
as a separate patch:
