[PATCH] drm/amdgpu: force using sdma to update vm page table when mmio is blocked

I made a related fix for HDP flushing under SRIOV a while ago, and that 
was confirmed to be working at the time. What changed since then? Is 
this on different HW or with a different BIOS? Or are you missing this 
patch? For reference:

     drm/amdgpu: Fix MMIO HDP flush on SRIOV
     
     Disable HDP register remapping on SRIOV and set rmmio_remap.reg_offset
     to the fixed address of the VF register for hdp_v*_flush_hdp.
