> IIUC the drm code (ttm_pool_alloc()) asking for contiguous pages doesn't actually need contiguous pages. It's just an opportunistic optimization.

That would be very good news (at least from the users' point of view).

Have not spent time on this issue since my last posts.  I had naively thought
that the new DRM ports really needed contiguous allocation for whatever reason,
and should probably have looked a bit further instead of assuming this would
need some deep and highly time consuming analysis.

Will test that soon and report.
