I think the comment above hmm_range_snapshot needs an update. Also
Documentation/vm/hmm.rst shows some example code using
hmm_range_snapshot that retries on -EAGAIN. That would need to be
updated to use -EBUSY or remove the retry logic altogether.
Other than that, this patch is Reviewed-by: Felix Kuehling

Philip, this means we should remove our retry logic again in
amdgpu_ttm_tt_get_user_pages. According to the comment above
hmm_range_fault, it can only return -EAGAIN if the block parameter is
false. I think this statement is now actually true. We set block=true,
so we can't get -EAGAIN. On -EBUSY we can let
amdgpu_amdkfd_restore_userptr_worker schedule the retry (which it does
already anyway).

Felix
