[PATCH] drm: Remove count_lock for calling lastclose() after 58474713 (v2)

When removing of the BKL the locking around lastclose() was rearranged
and resulted in the holding of the open_count spinlock over the call
into drm_lastclose(). The drivers were not ready for this path to be
atomic - it may indeed involve long waits to release old objects and
cleanup the GPU - and so we ended up scheduling whilst atomic.

v2: The spinlock is actually superfluous as access to open_count is
entirely serialised by drm_global_mutex and so can be dropped. The
count_lock spinlock instead appears to be used to protect access to
dev->buf_alloc and dev->buf_use.
