Will the PPGTT fix be sent out soon? If not, can you just send me a 
quick fix directly?

Also, noticed that in 'submit_execbuf()', if the 'copy_from_user()' call 
fails then it jumps to the error return but does not set 'ret' thus will 
actually return success. Also, there seems to be a mix of 'goto error' 
vs 'return E*'. In general it looks like you do the goto only after 'rq' 
has been allocated but there are a couple of places that do the jump 
with a null 'rq'. The code will cope with trying to put a null rq but it 
seems a bit inconsistent.


Thanks,
John.
