Subject: etnaviv: fix gem object list corruption

From: Lucas Stach <[email protected]>

commit 518417525f3652c12fb5fad6da4ade66c0072fa3 upstream.

All manipulations of the gem_object list need to be protected by the list mutex, as GEM objects can be created and freed in parallel. This fixes a kernel memory corruption.
