eb_relocate should be outright disallowed on multi lrc execbuf ioctl.
There's no users of that left, and it does substantially simplify the
entire locking problem if we outright disallow that.

> and eb_release_vmas() on the last. Doing so will save CPU / GPU cycles.

Yah for our mix of pin/unpin vs dma_resv_lock/unlock. Now with the current
unpin design this move is ok, but we want/need to switch vma over to
dma_resv_lock. And then it gets really nasty, because you run into a ton
of problems.

To more I read this the less I like this :-/
