    drm/ttm: Don't move non-existing data
    
    If ttm_bo_move_memcpy was instructed to move a non-populated ttm to
    io memory, it would first populate the ttm, then move the data and then
    destroy the ttm. That's stupid. However, some drivers might have relied on
    this to clear io memory from old stuff. So instead of a NOP, which would
    be the most efficient, just clear the destination.
