[PATCH 1/2] drm/amdgpu: Increase direct IB pool size

Ok, good to know. That's probably the reason why we didn't push that 
stuff into the IB in the first place.

And yes, using fixed 256kiB sounds like a plan to me then, but please 
also double check the AMDGPU_IB_POOL_SIZE define.

I also won't mind if you just open code the two initialization since 
there probably will never be any more than that.

Thanks,
Christian.
