I thought at least that for cases like these -mm is the last resort
tree, so proper thing to do here is apply this fix to drm-misc-fixes
and get it out there. -mm rebases, so will fall out again.

Also maybe we should have had some tests for this, plus some
integration with the gem object name instead of duplicating buffer
object names everywhere for different reasons.
