Merge branch 'drm-ttm-next' into drm-core-next
* drm-ttm-next: drm/radeon: Use the ttm execbuf utilities drm/ttm: Fix up io_mem_reserve / io_mem_free calling drm/ttm/vmwgfx: Have TTM manage the validation sequence. drm/ttm: Improved fencing of buffer object lists drm/ttm/radeon/nouveau: Kill the bo lock in favour of a bo device fence_lock drm/ttm: Don't deadlock on recursive multi-bo reservations drm/ttm: Optimize ttm_eu_backoff_reservation drm/ttm: Use kref_sub instead of repeatedly calling kref_put kref: Add a kref_sub function drm/ttm: Add a bo list reserve fastpath (v2)
