drm/xe: Fix stale pinned_link entry when fb-pin performs the final unpin

xe_bo_pin_external() and xe_bo_unpin_external() maintain the bo's
pinned_link list membership in xe->pinned.late.external, based on
whether the current call is the outermost pin or the final unpin.
However, the same external bo's pin_count can also be raised and
lowered directly by __xe_pin_fb_vma()/__xe_unpin_fb_vma(), which pin
the bo as a display scanout buffer without going through
xe_bo_pin_external()/xe_bo_unpin_external() at all, and have no
notion of, or ownership over, pinned_link.

If a bo is pinned both externally (e.g. dma-buf export) and as an fb,
and the external unpin happens first, xe_bo_unpin_external() correctly
observes pin_count > 1 and leaves the bo on pinned_link. When the fb
unpin later performs the true last unpin (pin_count 1 -> 0), it never
touches pinned_link, leaving the bo linked on xe->pinned.late.external
indefinitely. Once the bo is subsequently freed, this stale list entry
points into freed memory, corrupting the list and risking a
use-after-free the next time the list is walked or spliced.

The backup object pin/unpin sites in xe_bo_notifier_prepare_pinned()/
xe_bo_notifier_unprepare_pinned() have the same bypass characteristic,
though they never add their bo to a pinned list, so are not affected
by this particular list-corruption issue.

Move the pinned_link removal into xe_bo_account_unpin(), which already
runs on every unpin path (kernel, external, framebuffer, backup
object) right before the true 1 -> 0 pin_count transition. Since
list_del_init() only operates on the node itself, this removal is
list-agnostic and safe to perform regardless of which list (external
or kernel_bo_present) the bo happens to be linked on, or which code
path is performing the final unpin. Drop the now-redundant explicit
list_del_init() calls in xe_bo_unpin_external() and xe_bo_unpin().

v2:
- New patch

v3:
- Rebased on changes to previous patch.
