Subject: [PATCH 3.16 160/217] drm/udl: Use unlocked gem unreferencing

3.16.35-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@...ll.ch>

commit 72b9ff0612ad8fc969b910cd00ac16b57a1a9ba4 upstream.

dev->struct_mutex, which these paths don't. Enforcing this requirement
has become a bit more strict with

commit ef4c6270bf2867e2f8032e9614d1a8cfc6c71663
