So I did apply my obvious "avoid the oops and just warn about it"
patch: commit 39cb2c9a316e ("drm/i915: Check for NULL i915_vma in
intel_unpin_fb_obj()").

I haven't actually triggered the problem since, so I don't know if
there might be some other downstream issue, but the workaround *may*
just be acceptable from a 4.10 standpoint.

Some maintainer who knows the code better should make the judgment call.
