If we ever want to make kms object hotplug/remove work I think we could
just switch over to using a hotplug mutex to protect these lists.
Currently these don't ever change, so I think we should be safe here
(together with the hotremove_mutex proposed in the previous patch).

Maybe add a big comment to explain why things are currently safe and what
needs to be fixed for kms object hotplug (i.e. just parts of a device).

Cheers, Daniel
