In order to be fully threadsafe we need to check that the drm_gem_object
refcount is still 0 after acquiring the mutex in order to call the free
function. Otherwise, we may encounter scenarios like:

Thread A:                                        Thread B:
drm_gem_close
unreference_unlocked
kref_put                                         mutex_lock
...                                              i915_gem_evict
...                                              kref_get -> BUG
...                                              i915_gem_unbind
...                                              kref_put
...                                              i915_gem_object_free
...                                              mutex_unlock
mutex_lock
i915_gem_object_free -> BUG
i915_gem_object_unbind
kfree
mutex_unlock

Note that no driver is currently using the free_unlocked vfunc and it is
scheduled for removal, hasten that process.
