No, that is done by hmm_vma_range_done / nouveau_range_done for the
success path.

Then we'd take svmm->mutex inside the helper and let the caller
unlock that. Either way it is a bit of a mess, and I'd rather prefer
if someone has the hardware would do a grand rewrite of this path
eventually. Alternatively if no one signs up to mainain this code
we should eventually drop it given the staging status.
