Hm this is a bit silly, because we really don't even need the objects[]
array:
- the first loop in could be put into the last one that builds the idr, at
  the cost of us having to tear down the entire idr on failure paths
  instead of releasing the objects[] array. Not a big deal because we
  don't have any real references to the objects, those are all in the main
  device idr, so an idr_destroy should be all it takes.

- validate_lease could also be put into that loop, which means we can
  drm_mode_object_put them as we go.

- because we fail on duplicated entries (not sure we have igts for that)
  with ENOSPC (bit an accidental error code) it's not really possible to
  fail

- I think I just realized that we have a use-after-free in the lease code
  for hotunpluggable connectors, because the lease idr does not hold a
  reference of its own for each object. So maybe more bugs here? Or at
  least the code that re-checks that the object still exists in
  drm_lease_create() and fails with ENOENT is a bit silly and maybe should
  be deleted. But maybe in another patch?

Anyway tldr; I think the unbounded objects[] array is a needless kernel
memory exhaustion path and should just go away completely ...

Cheers, Sima
