Hello,

I have a radeon HD4650 pcie, I use the radeon driver,

since a new algorithm for drm/ttm introduced in kernel 4.15.x then I notice a
performance loss in video playback, especially when the format is 1080p ( for
example youtube video ), some lags are visible ( for example travelling images,
vertical scroll of the credits in a video ),

the bug has been introduced since this commit :

commit 648bc3574716400acc06f99915815f80d9563783

    drm/ttm: add transparent huge page support for DMA allocations v2

    Try to allocate huge pages when it makes sense.

    v2: fix comment and use ifdef

reverting this patch solves the bug,

I have created a bug report in kernel's bugzilla :
