Now that i915_vma_parked() is taking the object lock on vma destruction,
and the only user of the vma refcount, i915_gem_object_unbind()
also takes the object lock, remove the vma refcount.

One issue still left in i915_gem_object_unbind is that it temporarily removes
vmas from the obj->vma.list and adds back later as vma needs to be unbind outside
the obj->vma.lock spinlock. This is an issue for other places where we iterate
over the obj->vma.list. i915_debugfs_describe_obj is one such case (upcoming
vm_bind will be another) that iterates over this list.
What is the plan here? Do we need to take object lock while iterating over the
list?

But this just something I noticed and not related to this patch.
This patch looks good to me.
