--- Comment #5 from Matt Whitlock <freedesktop-wf/ZkUcLzLDBWRuVRseHprNAH6kLmebB@public.gmane.org> ---
I've run into this exact same failure on Linux kernel 4.4.7-gentoo.

I would venture a guess that the memory allocated for a GPU FIFO buffer needs
to be physically continuous, as it will be used for DMA, so using vmalloc is a
bad idea that may lead to incorrect pages being read/written by DMA.

Aside: Does this bug report belong on this bug tracker, or would it be more
appropriate on the kernel bug tracker? This is a problem in the kernel, not in
the DDX.
