Got intrigued, did some more digging, I guess the bugfix part is related
to:

commit 841e763b40764a7699ae07f4cb1921af62d6316d

    drm/ttm: individualize BO reservation obj when they are freed

and that's why you switch everything over to useing _resv instead of the
pointer. But then I still don't follow the details ...

I got confused a bit at first, until I spotted the

	fbo->base = *bo;

somewhere above. So I think that part makes sense, together with the above
cited patch. I think at least, confidence on this is very low ...

Shouldn't this be switched over to _resv too? Otherwise feels like
unbalanced locking.

I guess dropping the lru part here (aside from switching from ->resv to
->_resv, which is your bugfix I think) doesn't matter since the ghost
object got all cleared up and isn't on any lists anyway? Otoh how does it
work then ...

Not clear to me why this is safe.
