Hi! Sorry for the delay. Response down below:

Are we sure that nouveau_bo_fixup_align() is the right place to validate this?
All this really does is avoid the actual calculation, I think I'd rather us
make sure that we don't take in a value like this at all.

Could you add a check into nouveau_bo_alloc() to check the value of tile_mode
there before we assign it to nvbo->mode, and then reject it in the same way we
already do for invalid sizes?
