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

I'm using a Ryzen 1600 and AMD Radeon RX 480 on an ASRock B450 Pro4
board with IOMMU enabled.
If you could try the attached patch, that'd be great!

Thanks,
