Hi Thomas,

sorry for that. Noted on the rest of that series as well that we need to 
improve the commit messages. But this one somehow slipped through 
because I discussed this change previously internally with Roger.

That made the change completely logical for me, but without this context 
everybody else just thinks "Hui what?". Going to keep that in mind the 
next time.

But back to topic: This series allows BOs which share the same 
reservation object as the BO currently allocated/validated to be evicted 
even when they are reserved.

This is useful because amdgpu wants to use a single reservation object 
for almost all BOs of a process.

Regards,
Christian.
