And drop it where it's not needed. Most driver just lookup the gem
object, allocate an fb struct, fill in all the useful fields and then
register it with drm_framebuffer_init.

All of these operations are already separately locked, and since we
only put the fb into the fpriv->fbs list _after_ having called
->fb_create, we can't also race with rmfb. We can otoh race with other
ioctls that put the framebuffer to use, but all drivers have been
reorganized already to call drm_framebuffer_init last in the fb
creation sequence.

So essentially, we can completely remove any modeset locks from the
addfb ioctl paths. Yeah!

Also, reference-counting is solid - we get a reference from fb_create
which we transfer to the fpriv->fbs list. And after unlocking the
fpriv->fbs_lock we don't touch the framebuffer any longer. Furthermore
drm_framebuffer_init has added a 2nd reference for the idr lookup, and
any access through that table will do it's own refcounting.
