Re: [Nouveau] Trouble with TTM patches w/nouveau in linux-next

GEM init happens here:

https://cgit.freedesktop.org/drm/drm/tree/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_gem.c#n221

Note the bo alloc / gem init / bo init dance.

I don't think there is a GEM object for internal allocations at all --
we just allocate bo's directly and that's it. Perhaps you meant
something else? I thought GEM was meant for externally-available
objects.

Cheers,
