The buffer object argument to ttm_move_memcpy was only used to determine whether the destination memory should be cleared only or whether we should copy data. Replace it with a "clear" bool, and update the callers. The intention here is to be able to use ttm_move_memcpy() async under a dma-fence as a fallback if an accelerated blit fails in a security- critical path where data might leak if the blit is not properly performed. For that purpose the bo is an unsuitable argument since its relevant members might already have changed at call time. Finally, update the ttm_move_memcpy kerneldoc that seems to have ended up with a stale version.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
