This fix the deadlock with the BO reservations during SVM_BO evictions while allocations in VRAM are concurrently performed. More specific, while the ttm waits for the fence to be signaled (ttm_bo_wait), it already has the BO reserved. In parallel, the restore worker might be running, prefetching memory to VRAM. This also requires to reserve the BO, but blocks the mmap semaphore first. The deadlock happens when the SVM_BO eviction worker kicks in and waits for the mmap semaphore held in restore worker. Preventing signal the fence back, causing the deadlock until the ttm times out. We don't need to hold the BO reservation anymore during validation and mapping. Now the physical addresses are taken from hmm_range_fault. We also take migrate_mutex to prevent range migration while validate_and_map update GPU page table.

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.
