From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursu...@intel.com>

We had three failure modes here:

1.
Deadlock in intelfb_alloc failure path where it calls
drm_framebuffer_remove, which grabs the struct mutex and intelfb_create
(caller of intelfb_alloc) was already holding it.

2.
Double unreference on the object if __intel_framebuffer_create fails
since both it and the caller (intelfb_alloc) do the unreference.

3.
Deadlock in intelfb_create failure path where it calls
drm_framebuffer_unreference, which grabs the struct mutex and
intelfb_create was already holding it.

v2:
   * Reformat commit msg to 72 chars. (Lukas Wunner)
   * Added third failure mode. (Lukas Wunner)

Ville, you suggested some changes earlier;

"""
I suggest removing the unref from __intel_framebuffer_create().
"""

Do you view that as an improvement in code clarity/organisation,
or you think my version is actually wrong for some reason?
