Lookign at drm_gem_flink_ioctl() that is implmented just above this
functions there are two things that I noted.

1) In drm_gem_flink_ioctl() the label is named "err:" - and my OCD likes
that similar labels have the same name.

2) The function takes the object_name_lock but fails to release it in
the error situation.

Danile Vetter updated the locking in
20228c447846da9399ead53fdbbc8ab69b47788a ("drm/gem: completely close gem_open vs. gem_close races")

but I failed to follow it all.
