amdgpu_bo_unref won't free anything if the reference count doesn't go to
0. And TTM is still holding a reference here. The BO won't be freed
until ttm_mem_evict_first calls ttm_bo_put.

The memset above overwrites the ttm_mem_reg structure, which means it
will forget about the VRAM nodes held by the BO. They need to be
released first. That's what frees the space that ttm_bo_evict was trying
to make available in the first place.
