Typically in some situations, we want to create locked objects when
we're already in a ww transaction and might not have access to the ww
context, in which case an ordinary sleeping lock would trigger a
lockdep splat, so a trylock is used instead since it will never fail.

I once introduced a i915_gem_object_lock_isolated() wrapper around
trylock to annotate this situation, but that was removed during the
obj->mm.lock removal IIRC. Similarly TTM has an option to create an
object locked.

So here we should probably BUG on a trylock failure, if anything.
 In the long run we should probably mimic TTM and introduce an
interface to create an object locked.
