CVE-2024-27062: nouveau: lock the client object tree.

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nouveau: lock the client object tree.

It appears the client object tree has no locking unless I've missed
something else. Fix races around adding/removing client objects,
mostly vram bar mappings.
