Christian sent a revert:
  56e51681246e ("drm/ttm: revert "Reduce the number of used allocation orders for TTM pages"")

Which has been in linux-next since the 21st. But I guess it missed being
in the initial DRM pull request.

See also other thread:
  https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZEljCgVFnDl%2FC+l3@debian/

Where Christian says the revert is "on the way" to Linus.

cheers
