[PATCH] drm: fix i_mapping and f_mapping initialization in drm_open in error path

[Ilija Hadzic]

Marco,

What makes you think that the crash after second modprobe is related to 
the mappings pointers in DRM module? Can you actually establish the 
correlation between these patches and the crash or you are just suspecting 
because your other bug had something to do with module removal/insertion?

If it's the latter, then you may want to open another bug report here 
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/ (use DRI for product and pick DRM/radeon for 
component) and have this issue tracked and addressed separately.

The divide error that your log shows apparently happens at this line
inside r6xx_remap_render_backend:

pipe_rb_ratio = rendering_pipe_num / req_rb_num;

I would suspect that req_rb_num somehow evaluates to zero at the second 
modprobe. That variable seems to be the derived of the last three 
arguments to r6xx_remap_render_backend. If I look at the caller 
(evergreen_gpu_init) the arguments that have the play here are all derived 
from the GPU's hardware registers (or are the constant for a given GPU 
device). So I suspect that the GPU driver leaves some state in GPU at 
module removal that later bites you.
