[PATCH 2/3] drm/gem: Fix a race between drm_gem_lru_scan() and drm_gem_object_release()

[Boris Brezillon]

The following race can currently happen:

| Thread 0 in `drm_gem_lru_scan`               | Thread 1 in `drm_gem_object_release` |
| -                                            | -                                    |
| move obj1 with refcount==0 to `still_in_lru` |                                      |
| move obj2 with refcount!=0 to `still_in_lru` |                                      |
| mutex_unlock                                 |                                      |
| shrink obj2                                  |                                      |
|                                              | lru = obj1->lru; // `still_in_lru`   |
| mutex_lock                                   |                                      |
| move obj1 back to the original lru           |                                      |
| mutex_unlock                                 |                                      |
| return                                       |                                      |
|                                              | dereference `still_in_lru`           |

Move the drm_gem_lru_move_tail_locked() after the
kref_get_unless_zero() check so that we don't end up with a
vanishing LRU when we hit drm_gem_object_release(). We also need to
remove the skipped object from its LRU, otherwise we'll keep hitting
it on subsequent loop iterations until it's actually removed from the
list in the drm_gem_release().
