This is not a problem right now, since the list should already be empty, but if it wasn't empty, vm_put was not called which leads to random corruption later.
With this fix, nouveau_gem_object_close can be safely changed to a noop, forcing the vm bindings to be removed when the original object is. This is not done in this patch since it may lead to the object staying mapped in the vm space until the gem object refcount drops to 0. This shouldn't be a big issue however.
If we choose to do so does allow us to use ttm's delayed destruction mechanism to unmap vm after object is idle, resulting in ioread32 no longer taking up 30% of cpu in Team Fortress 2 if I don't do the vma unmap in nouveau_gem_object_close.

Hi Maarten
I've noticed ioread32 of up-to 40% on of cpu my system. With your patch if goes down to ~3% with no side effects. Frame-rate appears to be slightly improved, although it's hard to say.
Is there any reason for holding this patch ? For what it's worth you can add

Well 2 reasons..
1) In the current form, you're guaranteed to cause memory corruption on forced client takedown. Locking needs more thought. The warns you get are very real errors. ;-)

2. I missed a kfree here ;-)
