I dont understand how the vmap change can break DRM.

The vmap patch only changes internal mm/vmalloc.c code (vmalloc() call
acts exactly the same way as before AFAICS).

Anyway, Mitch (or Erik who's seeing the problem), can please revert the
vmap() change to check if its causing the mentioned problem?

The patch is attached. Apply it with -R.

# [PATCH] vmap() backport
#
# Hi Marcelo,
#
# this patch backports vmap() from 2.5. vmap() is needed for
#
# - XFS
# - proper AGP support on ia64 and ppc
# (- latest ALSA seems to have some use for in on 2.5)
#
# the 2.4 implementation is not as sound as the 2.5 one but far less
# intrusive. It has been tested for more than a year in the XFS tree
# and -aa and in -ac for a while.
# --------------------------------------------
