Using 314b658 with amdgpu, starting sway and firefox causes "BUG: Bad

hangs, and then everything grinds to a halt (can't start more programs,
can't even reboot through systemd).

Using master and reverting that branch up to that point fixes the
problem.

I'm using a Ryzen 1600 and AMD Radeon RX 480 on an ASRock B450 Pro4
board with IOMMU enabled.

Hmm. That sounds bad. Could you send a copy of your config?

Meanwhile, I'll prepare a small patch that disables the non-vmwgfx huge_fault() until we've figured out what's happening.
