Since __vma_release is run by a kworker after the fence has been signaled, it is no longer protected by the active reference on the vma, and so the alias of vw->pinned to vma->obj is also not protected by a reference on the object. Add an explicit reference for vw->pinned so it will always be safe. Found by inspection.
