i915_gem_object_put_pages() is uses the SG, and the usage for
drm_prim_gem_destroy()

from __i915_gem_free_objects() doesn't use the SG because it has been "freed"
already, I am not sure if that would work...

Hmm.. with that in mind, maybe moving the base.import_attach check to 
__i915_gem_object_put_pages with your attach check?

	atomic_set(&obj->mm.pages_pin_count, 0);
	if (obj->base.import)
		i915_gem_object_lock(obj, NULL);

	__i915_gem_object_put_pages(obj);

	if (obj->base.import)
		i915_gem_object_unlock(obj, NULL);
	GEM_BUG_ON(i915_gem_object_has_pages(obj));

Pretty much one step up from the dmabuf interface, but we are guaranteed to
not have any pinned pages?

The other caller of __i915_gem_object_pages_fini is the i915_ttm move_notify
which should not conflict (export side, not import side).

Since it appears that not locking during the clean up is desirable, trying to make sure take the lock
is taken at the last moment might be the right path?
