No, the release objects are pinned too, and they must be
pinned (qxl commands are in there, and references are
placed in the qxl rings, so allowing them to roam is
a non-starter).

Well, the pin_count is 1 at this point.
No need for the if().

Just calling ttm_bo_unpin() here makes lockdep unhappy.

Not calling ttm_bo_unpin() makes ttm_bo_release() throw
a WARN() because of the pin.

Clearing pin_count (which is how ttm fixes things up
in the error path) works.

I'm open to better ideas.

take care,
  Gerd
