From: Thomas Hellström <thomas.hellstrom@linux.intel.com>

commit e773798e14ac0aea54ca9676083b91f445e5bc59 upstream.

drmm_cgroup_register_region() is called before INIT_LIST_HEAD() and
gpu_buddy_init() in amdgpu_vram_mgr_init(). If it fails, the function
returns early and bypasses those initializations.

Since adev->mman.initialized is set to true before amdgpu_vram_mgr_init()
is called, a failure triggers amdgpu_ttm_fini(), which calls
amdgpu_vram_mgr_fini(), which then:

 - Calls list_for_each_entry_safe() on reservations_pending and
   reserved_pages, whose list_head::next pointers are zero-initialized
   (NULL). The loop does not recognize them as empty and dereferences NULL.

 - Calls gpu_buddy_fini(), which iterates free_trees[] unconditionally
   via for_each_free_tree(). Since mm->free_trees is NULL
   (never allocated), this dereferences NULL.

Both result in a kernel panic on the module load error path.

Fix by moving drmm_cgroup_register_region() to after the list and buddy
allocator are fully initialized, so the teardown path is safe to run.
