You're right.
I narrowed it with gdb dump from ttm_bo_bulk_move_lru_tail+0x2b, the
use-after-free should be in below codes: 

man = &bulk->tt[i].first->bdev->man[TTM_PL_TT];
ttm_bo_bulk_move_helper(&bulk->tt[i], &man->lru[i], false);

Is there a case, when orignal bo is destroyed in the bulk pos, but it
doesn't update pos->first pointer, then we still use it during the bulk
moving?

Thanks,
Ray
