Actually, I'm using a plain Radeon 9100 PCI.

I confirm that we're getting -ENOMEM. I don't know if it's coming from
radeon_gart_bind(), but if it is there's an interesting comment
immediately after the call to pci_map_page:
if (pci_dma_mapping_error(rdev->pdev, rdev->gart.pages_addr[p])) {
/* FIXME: failed to map page (return -ENOMEM?) */
radeon_gart_unbind(rdev, offset, pages);
return -ENOMEM;
}

Boot with `radeon.test=1 radeon.gartsize=<size in MB>`.
