> The error message is inside dummy function amdgpu_mn_register, it only 
shows if kernel config option HMM is not enabled. Driver does need HMM 
kernel option to support userptr. We want to provide obvious message to 
users to update kernel config file from old kernel, otherwise all 
userptr related functions are broken. I will change this to WARN_ONCE to 
avoid spam dmesg.
