So close.

(Oh, don't use assert for expressions with side-effects)

As a thought exercise, now consider what happens if thread B grabs a
reference to this bufmgr and frees it all before this thread wakes up?

Double free, kaboom.

This does have to be an atomic_add_unless, which does not yet exist in
libdrm:

static inline int atomic_add_unless(atomic_t *v, int add, int unless)
{
        int c, old;
        c = atomic_read(v);
        while (c != unless && (old = atomic_cmpxchg(v, c, c + add)) != c)
                c = old;
        return c == unless;
}

static void
drm_intel_bufmgr_gem_unref(drm_intel_bufmgr *bufmgr)
{
	drm_intel_bufmgr_gem *bufmgr_gem = (drm_intel_bufmgr_gem *)bufmgr;

	if (atomic_add_unless(&bufmgr_gem->refcount, -1, 1)) {
		pthread_mutex_lock(&bufmgr_list_mutex);
		if (atomic_dec_and_test(&bufmgr_gem->refcount)) {
			free stuff;
		}
		pthread_mutex_unlock(&bufmgr_list_mutex);
         }
}
