eb_destroy currently cleans up the refcounts for all the VMAs done at
lookup. Currently eb_lookup_vmas cleans up all the *objects* we've
looked up. There exists a period of time when we under severe memory
pressure, the VMA creation will fail, and fall into our exit path.
When the above event occurs, the object list, and eb->vma list are not
equal, the latter being a subset of the former. As we attempt to clean
up the refcounts on the error path we have the potential to decrement
the refcount by one extra here.

drm/i915: Convert execbuf code to use vmas
NOTE: A patch purporting the same results exists from Chris written to
address a quibble he had with something or other in this patch. I have
not tested that patch, but if it does the same thing I don't care
which is used.
