Since we will ask for a !map_and_fenceable pin, pin() will not
automatically bind into the global GTT, so I think we still need the
ggtt->bind_vma().

Yes, the pin-count adjustments should be unnecessary - but not a huge
burden, and I was thinking it may help in the future as we may want to
explicitly hold the pin until move-to-active for all objects. That
future being where we strive to reduce hold times on struct_mutex.
