dev->struct_mutex is the Big DRM Lock and the only bit where
it’s mandatory is serializing GEM buffer object destruction.
Which unfortunately means drivers have to keep track of that
lock and either call unreference or unreference_locked
depending upon context. Core GEM doesn’t have a need for
struct_mutex any more since kernel 4.8.
For drivers that need struct_mutex it should be replaced by a driver
private lock.
