I actually want to get rid of __ttm_bo_reserve as well. Cause what is 
easier to understand:

__ttm_bo_reserve(bo, false, false, NULL) vs. 
reservation_object_lock(bo->resv);

__ttm_bo_reserve(bo, false, true, NULL) vs. 
reservation_object_trylock(bo->resv);

__ttm_bo_reserve(bo, true, false, NULL) vs. 
reservation_object_lock_interruptible(bo->resv);

It's most likely caused by this change, I will take another look tomorrow.

kmemleak is quite nice to have available as well, but doesn't need to 
run automatically all the time.

Christian.
