Subject: [ 021/108] drm/i915: Reduce a pin-leak BUG into a WARN

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Chris Wilson <chris@...is-wilson.co.uk>

commit 7e81a42e341a4f15d76624b7c02ffb21b085b56f upstream.

Pin-leaks persist and we get the perennial bug reports of machine
lockups to the BUG_ON(pin_count==MAX). If we instead loudly report that
the object cannot be pinned at that time it should prevent the driver from
locking up, and hopefully restore a semblance of working whilst still
leaving us a OOPS to debug.
