I don't know that it's better - it reinforces the notion that you have
to make the kernel-side tiling match for the dma-buf import extension
to work. I think it'd be better to land these patches (btw, Rb: me
(can you even do parenthetical Rbs?)) and call set-tiling in mesa. The
assumption being that if the tiling doesn't match the modifier, then
maybe the producer didn't care about kernel tiling? Alternatively,
could we set bo->tiling = INCONSISTENT or such in mesa and then use
that to avoid the gtt map paths?
