The msm_gem_new_impl() function cleans up after itself so there is no need to call drm_gem_object_put(). Conceptually, it does not make sense to call a kref_put() function until after the reference counting has been initialized which happens immediately after this call in the drm_gem_(private_)object_init() functions. In the msm_gem_import() function the "obj" pointer is uninitialized, so it will lead to a crash.
