I see, so it's probably something else that has been fixed in drm-tip.
It's likely that at least one commit in drm-tip is also broken. I'd try
to find one of these. One idea is to go through the commits that went
into the related files. Maybe go back to the HEAD of drm-tip and try
something like

git log --oneline -- drivers/gpu/drm/ast/
drivers/gpu/drm/drm_gem_vram_helper.c drivers/gpu/drm/ttm/

That lists recent ast and memory-management commits. One of them might
be broken and can serve an a starting point for a bisect.

I did a diff from v5.10-rc4 to drm-tip to look for suspicious changes.
Some candidates are

8e3784dfef8a ("drm/ast: Reload gamma LUT after changing primary
plane's color format")
2b8283ff1a60 ("drm/vram_helper: implement a ttm move callback.")
6a6e5988a265 ("drm/ttm: replace last move_notify with delete_mem_notify")

I'd test them against their parent commits to see if anything changes.

Thanks for all your efforts!

Best regards
Thomas
