Not too familiar with panfrost, but I don't see
panfrost_gem_mapping_get hold a reference to the bo?

I might suggest dropping the "_with_handle" suffix.
The naming convention is used in several drivers. I think we should
make it the case that the _with_handle variants always return the
handle without the pointer. (And with the change, it immediately
becomes clear that qxl and vmwgfx also have similar issues).
