The race is that the kernel returns us the same file-private handle as
the first thread, but that first thread is about to call gem_close
(thereby removing the handle from the file completely) and does so
between us acquiring the handle and taking the mutex. If we take
the mutex, then we acquire the refcnt on the bo prior to the first
thread completing its unref (and so preventing the early close). Or we
acquire the handle after the earlier close, in which case we are the new
owner.
