that was my earlier attempt, and I wasn't too happy with the result.
And then I realized if refcount==0 then by definition we aren't racing
with anyone else ;-)

they are both _locked paths ;-)
But in general I think the parallel code paths make things more
confusing about what is the right thing to call. And I would like to
put more WARN_ON(!locked()) in the gem_vma code, to make it clear that
the obj lock is protecting things there as well.. which, with this
approach would turn into parallel code paths multiple levels deep
