Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915: avoid deadlock on failure paths in __intel_framebuffer_create()

Since a8bb6818270c __intel_framebuffer_create() is called
with struct_mutex held, so it should use drm_gem_object_unreference()
instead of drm_gem_object_unreference_unlocked().

Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
