Yes, I added it to deal with the partially imported GEM. The
obj->import_attach can't be set until dma-buf is fully imported as it
also will cause trouble for the error code path, now dma-buf will be
freed two times.

The put_pages() itself decrements the refcnt.

I'm going back to deferring all this questionable changes for the later
times. It is not essential problem for this patchset.
