This code looks like a workaround or a bug.

AFAICT the only place with pre-pinned BO is qdev->dumb_shadow_bo. Can you
remove the pinned flag entirely and handle pinning as part of
dumb_shadow_bo's code.
No, the release objects are pinned too, and they must be
pinned (qxl commands are in there, and references are
placed in the qxl rings, so allowing them to roam is
a non-starter).

if (pin_count)
    ttm_bo_unpin();
WARN_ON(pin_count); /* should always be 0 now */
Well, the pin_count is 1 at this point.
No need for the if().

Just calling ttm_bo_unpin() here makes lockdep unhappy.
How does that one splat? But yeah if that's a problem should be
explained in the comment. I'd then also only do a pin_count--; to make
sure you can still catch other pin leaks if you have them. Setting it
to 0 kinda defeats the warning.

Not calling ttm_bo_unpin() makes ttm_bo_release() throw
a WARN() because of the pin.

Clearing pin_count (which is how ttm fixes things up
in the error path) works.

I'm open to better ideas.

take care,
  Gerd
