    drm/ttm: fix fence locking in ttm_buffer_object_transfer

which leaves behind a might_sleep in atomic context, since the
fence_lock spinlock is held over a kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL) call. The fix
is to revert the above commit and only take the lock where we need it,
around the call to ->sync_obj_ref.

v2: Fixup things noticed by Maarten Lankhorst:
- Brown paper bag locking bug.
- No need for kzalloc if we clear the entire thing on the next line.
- check for bo->sync_obj (totally unlikely race, but still someone
  else could have snuck in) and clear fbo->sync_obj if it's cleared
  already.
