But only when we indeed set up a gtt mapping. We need this since the
vma also holds a pages_pin_count, on top of the unconditional
pages_pin_count we grab for all stolen objects (to avoid swap-out).

This should avoid a pages_pin_count underrun when cleaning up
framebuffers objects taken over from the BIOS.

I'm missing why _i915_gem_object_create_stolen() isn't good enough for
pinning the pages.

Citing my commit message "... vma also holds a pages_pin_count". Which
is on top of the general pages_pin_count we have for all stolen
objects to avoid them getting swapped out.

The bug is older than the introduction of vma.
