I haven't looked much at the patch, but the deferred-free looks more bogus
the more I stare at it. As long as an object is active, we /should/ have a
reference on it, so we should never fail to wait for outstanding rendering
on the final free. The only execption is the ilk/vt-d unbind w/a, but that
one is already uninterruptible.

So I think we should just drop the deferred free list, check for any
errors from unbind with a WARN_ON and bail out (leaking the bo) in that
case.
