I think I'm okay with the change (assuming virtio_gpu_free_object()
can deal with partially initialized objects), not with the explanation
:-). I don't really see why we need to take the resv lock in
drm_gem_shmem_free(). As said in my v15 review, I think we should
replace the drm_gem_shmem_put_pages() call we have in
drm_gem_shmem_free() by a call to a new drm_gem_shmem_free_pages()
helper that does exactly what drm_gem_shmem_put_pages() does without
the refcounting/locking, because all that should remain at the time
drm_gem_shmem_free() is called is the implicit pages ref owned by
shmem->sgt, and there's no risk of other threads accessing the GEM
object at that point.
