Hi
I'm getting this oops (on commit a180bd1d7e16):

I had a look at the code, and it seems that this is caused by trying to use bo->resource which is NULL.
bo->resource is freed by ttm_bo_cleanup_refs() -> ttm_bo_cleanup_memtype_use() -> ttm_resource_free().
And then a notification is issued by ttm_bo_cleanup_refs() -> ttm_bo_put() -> ttm_bo_release() -> ttm_bo_cleanup_memtype_use(), this time with bo->release equal to NULL.
I was thinking a proper way to fix this. Checking that bo->release is not NULL in qxl_bo_move_notify() would solve the issue. But maybe there is a better way, like avoiding that ttm_bo_cleanup_memtype_use() is called twice. Which way would be preferable?
Thanks
