Another circular lock dependency involving fs-reclaim and drm_buddy

Hi Felix,

to be honest I think the whole approach you take here and unmapping the 
range with the lock held is highly problematic.

Essentially unmapping is something which can run concurrently with other 
operations and should never be blocked by such a lock. In other words it 
is perfectly valid for an unmap to run while another processor tries to 
map the same range.

That's why the same page fault can occur multiple times until the page 
tables are up to date.

When you get an MMU notification that range A->B is invalidated you 
trigger invalidation of range A->B inside the GPUVM address space as 
well and that's completely independent what's mapped there.

Invalidating the mappings and eventually scheduling that they are 
re-created is a separate step which should come independent of this if 
I'm not completely mistaken.

Regards,
Christian.
