Then the current place to do fput(pdd->drm_file) make more sense: unmap 
vm mapping of qpd->cwsr_mem, qpd->ib_mem is the last place where kfd 
process release procedure needs vm alive. After that the kfd process 
release does not need vm alive. It then releases remaining buffers. So 
release drm_file as soon as we do not need hold it.
