drm: Switch blobs to the new generic modeset obj refcounting
Need to move the free function around a bit, but otherwise mostly
just removing code.
Specifically we can nuke all the _locked variants since the weak idr
reference is now protected by the idr_mutex, which we never hold
anywhere expect in the lookup/reg/unreg functions. And those never
call anything else.
Another benefit of this is that this patch switches the weak reference
logic from kref_put_mutex to kref_get_unless_zero. And the later is in
general more flexible wrt accomodating multiple weak references
protected by different locks, which might or might not come handy
eventually.
But one consequence of that switch is that we need to acquire the
blob_lock from the free function for the list_del calls. That's a bit
tricky to pull off, but works well if we pick the exact same scheme as
is already used for framebuffers. Most important changes:
- filp list is maintainer by create/destroy_blob ioctls directly
(already the case, so we can just remove the redundant list_del from
the free function).
- filp close handler walks the filp-private list lockless - works
because we know no one else can access it. I copied the same comment
from the fb code over to explain this.
- Otherwise we need to sufficiently restrict blob_lock critical
sections to avoid all the unreference calls. Easy to do once the
blob_lock only protects the list, and no longer the weak reference.
