drm/i915: Reference objects on the ww object list



Since the ww transaction endpoint easily end up far out-of-scope of
the objects on the ww object list, particularly for contending lock
objects, make sure we reference objects on the list so they don't
disappear under us.

This comes with a performance penalty so it's been debated whether this
is really needed. But I think this is motivated by the fact that locking
is typically difficult to get right, and whatever we can do to make it
simpler for developers moving forward should be done, unless the
performance impact is far too high.
