Without this, a bo may get created in the cpu-inaccessible vram. Before the CP engines get setup, all copies are done via cpu memcpy.
This means that the cpu tries to read from inaccessible memory, fails, and the radeon module proceeds to disable acceleration.
Doing this has no downsides, as the real VRAM size gets set as soon as the CP engines get init.
This is a candidate for 3.14 fixes.

Won't this create objects that are stuck in the middle of VRAM with the new top down approach?
then when we go to use all the VRAM they'll be pinned in the middle?

Yes, the initial pins would act like that with the top-down code. But the top-down logic is 3.15 material and still WIP.
Depending on their constraints, I think I'll either add a new flag, or turn them into FIXED allocations - do they need to be at exact position foo or only at the beginning. (Christian?)
So sending this fix to stable is safe, as they all use bottom-up.

AFAIK the stolen VGA memory must be at the very beginning.
The UVD firmware memory block needs to be in the first 256MB, allocated and initialized before all other blocks are started and after used once can't be moved around any more.
I'm not sure about this but we probably have more allocations that assume they end up at the beginning of the address space (GART?).

Gart (vmid 0) needs to be in the visible area since we use the CPU to update it.
