drm/gem: Always initialize the gem object in object_init
commit 6ab11a2635ce988ebc2e798947beb72cf7324119 upstream. At least drm/i915 expects that the obj->dev pointer is set even in failure paths. Specifically when the shmem initialization fails we call i915_gem_object_free which needs to deref obj->base.dev to get at the slab pointer in the device private structure. And the shmem allocation can easily fail when userspace is hitting open file limits. Doing the structure init even when the shmem file allocation fails prevents this Oops. This is a regression from commit 89c8233f82d9c8af5b20e72e4a185a38a7d3c50b Author: David Herrmann <dh.herrmann@gmail.com> Date: Thu Jul 11 11:56:32 2013 +0200 drm/gem: simplify object initialization v2: Add regression note which Chris supplied.
