I don't understand. I'm not aware that this patch fixes anything, it 
just enables the subsequent fix in amdgpu in patch #2. I don't think 
squashing those together is a good idea (one is in ttm, the other in 
amdgpu).

That feels odd to me, since the return value indicates that the buffer 
wasn't properly initialized, but I don't feel strongly about it.
