While that's obviously better than never calling debug_active_activate(), I'm 
wondering how likely we can still miss it because the counter being 
incremented, e.g. via i915_active_acquire_if_busy(), by a concurrent thread.  
Since __i915_active_activate() is the only user and its decision making step 
is serialized against itself with a spinlock, couldn't we better call 
debug_object_activate() unconditionally here?

Thanks,
Janusz
