The conflict was an interaction between a bug fix in the
netvsc driver in 'net' and an optimization of the RX path
in 'net-next'.

- i915 unpin_work workqueue:

process_one_work+0x1f1/0x480
worker_thread+0x48/0x4d0
kthread+0x101/0x140
and this patch purely papers over the issue by adding a NULL pointer
check and a WARN_ON_ONCE() to avoid the oops that would then generally
make the machine unresponsive.
Other callers of i915_gem_object_to_ggtt() seem to also check for the
returned pointer being NULL and warn about it, so this clearly has
happened before in other places.
[ Reported it originally to the i915 developers on Jan 8, applying the
ugly workaround on my own now after triggering the problem for the
second time with no feedback.
This is likely to be the same bug reported as
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98829
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99134
which has a patch for the underlying problem, but it hasn't gotten to
me, so I'm applying the workaround. ]
