If it has a WARN_ON or something that would be ok, I didn't find any other places that attempt to move buffers to VRAM though, so it's probably harmless.

When looking into this bug I noticed that nouveau_bo_vma_add needs to have a check for nvbo->page_shift == vma->vm->vmm->spg_shift,
and only if the check is true it should map the page in TTM_PL_TT. Patch below.
Should probably also be cc'd to stable.
