On further reflection, maybe a better approach would be to have a 
function ttm_bo_init_reserved, which returns with the reservation lock 
held upon success. We can then just change amdgpu_bo_create_restricted 
to ttm_bo_unreserve instead of ww_mutex_unlock, which does the add-to-LRU.

AFAICT, it doesn't make much sense to add the buffer to the LRU that 
early anyway, if amdgpu_fill_buffer is used.

Nicolai
