From: Nicolai Hähnle <nicolai.haeh...@amd.com>

Fixes a potential race condition in amdgpu that looks as follows:

Task 1: attempt ttm_bo_init, but ttm_bo_validate fails
Task 1: add BO to global list anyway
Task 2: grabs hold of the BO, waits on its reservation lock
Task 1: releases its reference of the BO; never gives up the
        reservation lock

The patch "drm/amdgpu: fix a potential deadlock in
amdgpu_bo_create_restricted()" attempts to fix that by releasing
the reservation lock in amdgpu code; unfortunately, it introduces
a use-after-free when this race _doesn't_ happen.

This patch should fix the race properly by never adding the BO
to the global list in the first place.
