Fixing SDMA TO after GPU reset

By current code logic job->vm_pd_addr is never going to be set unless 
the job is created for user SC or for buffer copy in amdgpu_copy_buffer
So in any other case we are going to skip VM flush. But amdgpu_vm_flush 
wants a flush to happen in case GPU reset just happend 
(amdgpu_vmid_had_gpu_reset is true)
so we will be skipping that VM flush (as in my case with 
amdgpu_driver_open_kms->amdgpu_vm_init->amdgpu_vm_clear_bo right after 
GPU reset occured)
Is it safe ?
