No, it's just your change is completely irrelevant and just complicates 
things.

Validating a BO twice should have basically no overhead at all.

And especially adding the manual call to map_table() in 
amdgpu_vm_make_compute() is a no-go. We don't want such specific 
handling for compute contexts.
