Subject: drm/amdgpu: Fail fb creation from imported dma-bufs. (v2)

From: Christopher James Halse Rogers <christopher.halse.rogers@canonical.com>


[ Upstream commit 1769152ac64b0b07583f696b621624df2ca4c840 ]

Any use of the framebuffer will migrate it to VRAM, which is not sensible for
an imported dma-buf.

v2: Use DRM_DEBUG_KMS to prevent userspace accidentally spamming dmesg.
