[PATCH] drm: allow property validation for refcnted props

[Rob Clark]

We can already have object properties, which technically can be fb's.
Switch the property validation logic over to a get/put style interface
so it can take a ref to refcnt'd objects, and then drop that ref after
the driver has a chance to take it's own ref.

Alternative approach to:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2014-November/072925.html

This allows us to take a ref to the property as part of the validate
step, and drop the ref after it has been pushed down to driver.
