Not sure it applies here, but if the refcount is down to 0 we know
we're in destruction code and can't race with anything anymore, so
maybe we can lift the debug check.

Otoh I think at that point we might still be on lru lists, so the
rules become rather tricky whether it's really always legal to skip
the dma_resv_lock. But we could perhaps figure out something if it's
too annoying to have a consistent calling context in drivers.

I'm not a huge fan of dropping the requirement from unpin and
switching to atomic_t for the pin count, since pin/unpin is an
extremely slow path, adding complexity in how we protect stuff for a
function that's maybe called 60/s (for page flipping we pin/unpin)
doesn't strike me as the right balance. And atomic commit helpers are
explicitly designed to allow drivers to grab dma_resv_lock in their
->cleanup_fb hook, since that part is _not_ in the dma_fence
signalling critical path for the atomic flip. But if all else fails I
guess that's an option too.
