This scares me, and also makes me wonder whether we really want to
conflate the original owner with the rendering owner. And also, whether we
really want to keep updating that, because for some of the "bind an fd to
a pid" use-cases like svm we really do not want to ever again allow a
change.

So sligthly different idea:
- we have a separate render pid/drm_file owner frome the open() owner that
  we track in drm_auth.c
- that one is set the first time a driver specific ioctl is called (which
  for the "pass me the fd" dri3 mode should never be the compositor)
- we start out with nothing and only set it once, which further simplifies
  the model (still need the mutex for concurrent first ioctl ofc)

Eventually we could then use that to enforce static binding to a pid,
which is what we want for svm style models, i.e. if the pid changes, the
fd does an -EACCESS or similar.

Thoughts?
