That the GEM code uses the wrong adev sounds like a bug to me which 
should be fixed anyway.

Apart from that I would just add a function amdgpu_xgmi_same_hive(adev1, 
adev2) which checks adev1!=adev2 and adev1->hive_id == adev2->hive_id.

As Felix pointed out BOs can move around for a couple of reasons. So 
actually checking if we use XGMI or not can be rather tricky.

I would just check the hive_id of the involved devices, so that if we 
can potentially use XGMI we power it on.

Only alternative I can see is to have the same complicated handling as 
with PRT.

Just put the is_xgmi flag into the bo_va structure instead of the 
mapping structure.

And when the bo_va structure is remove in amdgpu_vm_bo_rmv you also 
decrement the counter.

Apart from that the handling stays the same, e.g. you increment the 
counter during the page table update.

Christian.
