This fixes a race pointed out by Dave Airlie where we don't take a buffer object about to be destroyed off the LRU lists properly. It also fixes a rare case where a buffer object could be destroyed in the middle of an accelerated eviction.

The patch also adds a utility function that can be used to prematurely release GPU memory space usage of an object waiting to be destroyed. For example during eviction or swapout.
