Subject: drm/i915: Check obj->vma_list under the struct_mutex

commit 6c31a614c43ae274546f736b2a33363e149c3dc2 upstream.

When we walk the list of vma, or even for protecting against concurrent
framebuffer creation, we must hold the struct_mutex or else a second
thread can corrupt the list as we walk it.

Fixes regression from
