Not sure it exists in a branch of yours already, but here's my thoughts on
extending this to the address_space lrus and the shrinker callback (which
I think would be the next step with good pay-off):

1. make sure pin_count is protected by reservation_obj.
2. grab the vm.mutex when walking LRUs everywhere. This is going to be
tricky for ggtt because of runtime PM. Between lock-dropping, carefully
avoiding rpm when cleaning up objects and just grabbing an rpm wakeref
when walking the ggtt vm this should be possible to work around (since for
the fences we clearly need to be able to nest the vm.mutex within rpm or
we're busted).
3. In the shrinker trylock the reservation_obj and treat a failure to get
the lock as if pin_count is elevated. If we can't shrink enough then grab
a temporary reference to the bo using kref_get_unless_zero, drop the
vm.mutex (since that's what gave us the weak ref) and do a blocking
reservation_obj lock.
4. Audit the obj/vma unbind paths and apply reservation_obj or vm.mutex
locking as needed until we can drop the struct_mutex from the shrinker.
Biggest trouble is probably ggtt mmap (but I think ordering of pte
shootdown takes care of that) and drm_mm ("just" needs to be protected by
vm.mutex too I think).

Plan is probably the underestimation of the decade, at least :-)
