Have cross-checked: my setup uses the fbdev driver.

Before the patch *all* access to the BO backing memory was done through TILER/DMM, mitigating the issue. After the patch, whoever tries to render to non-scanout buffer is doing it directly to the memory, causing the issue.

Do you have my "drm: pvrsgx: dmabuf import - Do not assume scatterlist memory is contiguous" patch in your PVR driver? Maybe there is another driver that lacks similar patch.
