drm/i915/gem: Defer obj->base.resv fini until RCU callback
Since reservation_object_fini() does an immediate free, rather than
kfree_rcu as normal, we have to delay the release until after the RCU
grace period has elapsed (i.e. from the rcu cleanup callback) so that we
can rely on the RCU protected access to the fences while the object is a
zombie.
i915_gem_busy_ioctl relies on having an RCU barrier to protect the
reservation in order to avoid having to take a reference and strong
memory barriers.
v2: Order is important; only release after putting the pages!
Fixes: c03467ba40f7 ("drm/i915/gem: Free pages before rcu-freeing the object
")
Testcase: igt/gem_busy/close-race
