I thought at least that for cases like these -mm is the last resort
tree, so proper thing to do here is apply this fix to drm-misc-fixes

Also maybe we should have had some tests for this, plus some
integration with the gem object name instead of duplicating buffer
object names everywhere for different reasons.
