Can you be more specific about what race you see?  The one thing that
could go wrong is that the last handle is delete after we enter
drm_gem_flink_ioctl() and look up the object but before taking the
object_name_lock, but that's handled by checking obj->handle_count
under the lock.  Deleting handles and removing the name is always done
under the object_name_lock from
drm_gem_object_handle_unreference_unlocked().
