Those fixes are correct, but doesn't address the real problem.

The intention of amdgpu_vm_size and amgpu_vm_block_size is to save 
memory by reducing the size of the PD/PTs.

Since we now use 4 level PDs/PTs the size of each is 4KB, which is 
usually the smallest allocation size anyway.

So I suggest to just drop support for amdgpu_vm_size for Vega10 and 
always use 256TB instead.

Jerry do you want to take care of this or should I look into it? Should 
be trivial to do.

Regards,
Christian.
