[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v5 2/2] drm/i915: On fb alloc failure, unref gem object where it gets refed

Currently when allocating a framebuffer fails, the gem object gets
unrefed at the bottom of the call chain in __intel_framebuffer_create,
not where it gets refed, which is in intel_framebuffer_create_for_mode
(via i915_gem_alloc_object) and in intel_user_framebuffer_create
(via drm_gem_object_lookup).

This invites mistakes: As discovered by Tvrtko Ursulin, a double unref
has sneaked into intelfb_alloc (which calls __intel_framebuffer_create).

As suggested by Ville Syrjälä, improve code clarity by moving the unref
away from __intel_framebuffer_create to where the gem object gets refed.

[Changelog is in preceding patch by Tvrtko Ursulin.]
