we observe similar issue: RHEL7 guests crashes in
qxl_draw_opaque_fb()
qxl_release_fence_buffer_objects()
crashdump investigation shows that qlx_object was freed and reused,
so its original content was re-written.
At the same time qxl_device have empty release_idr,
ant there are no allocated qxl_bo_list entries.
i.e. qxl_release_free was really called.

We think the same: qxl_release was freed by garbage collector before
original thread had called qxl_release_fence_buffer_objects().

I'm going to prepare and test such patch but I have one question here:
qxl_push_*_ring_release can be called with interruptible=true and fail
How to correctly handle this case? Is the hunk below correct from your POV?
