commit 44d89409a12eb8333735958509d7d591b461d13d upstream.
The idea behind keeping the saturation mask local to a context backfired
spectacularly. The premise with the local mask was that we would be more
proactive in attempting to use semaphores after each time the context
idled, and that all new contexts would attempt to use semaphores
ignoring the current state of the system. This turns out to be horribly
optimistic. If the system state is still oversaturated and the existing
workloads have all stopped using semaphores, the new workloads would
attempt to use semaphores and be deprioritised behind real work. The
new contexts would not switch off using semaphores until their initial
batch of low priority work had completed. Given sufficient backload load
of equal user priority, this would completely starve the new work of any
GPU time.
To compensate, remove the local tracking in favour of keeping it as
global state on the engine -- once the system is saturated and
semaphores are disabled, everyone stops attempting to use semaphores
until the system is idle again. One of the reason for preferring local
context tracking was that it worked with virtual engines, so for
switching to global state we could either do a complete check of all the
virtual siblings or simply disable semaphores for those requests. This
takes the simpler approach of disabling semaphores on virtual engines.
The downside is that the decision that the engine is saturated is a
local measure -- we are only checking whether or not this context was
scheduled in a timely fashion, it may be legitimately delayed due to user
priorities. We still have the same dilemma though, that we do not want
to employ the semaphore poll unless it will be used.
v2: Explain why we need to assume the worst wrt virtual engines.

Use the engine->flags to store whether we want to kick the submission
tasklet on receipt of a breadcrumb interrupt, so that this decision can
be made by the submission backend and not dependent on a limited feature
test within the interrupt handler. This should make it easier to adapt to
different submission backends.

For more intel_engine_mask_t detangling. This time so that we can use
intel_engine_mask_t inside the scheduling structs.

We want to use intel_engine_mask_t inside i915_request.h, which means
extracting it from the general header file mess and placing it inside a
types.h. A knock on effect is that the compiler wants to warn about
type-contraction of ALL_ENGINES into intel_engine_maskt_t, so prepare
for the worst.
v2: Use intel_engine_mask_t consistently
v3: Move I915_NUM_ENGINES to its natural home at the end of the enum

A few advantages:
- Prepares us for the planned split of display uncore from GT uncore
- Improves our engine-centric view of the world in the engine code
and allows us to avoid jumping back to dev_priv.
- Allows us to wrap accesses to engine register in nice macros that
automatically pick the right mmio base.

As the final request on a ring may hold the reference to this ring (via
retiring the last pinned context), we may find ourselves chasing a
dangling pointer on completion of the list.
A quick solution is to hold a reference to the ring itself as we retire
along it so that we only free it after we stop dereferencing it.

Each engine acquires a pin on the kernel contexts (normal and preempt)
so that the logical state is always available on demand. Keep track of
each engines pin by storing the returned pointer on the engine for quick
access.

In preparation for an ever growing number of engines and so ever
increasing static array of HW contexts within the GEM context, move the
array over to an rbtree, allocated upon first use.
Unfortunately, this imposes an rbtree lookup at a few frequent callsites,
but we should be able to mitigate those by moving over to using the HW
context as our primary type and so only incur the lookup on the boundary
with the user GEM context and engines.
v2: Check for no HW context in guc_stage_desc_init

If we place a pointer to the engine specific intel_context_ops in the
engine itself, we can assign the ops pointer on initialising the
context, and then rely on it being set. This simplifies the code in
later patches.

This complex struct pulling in half the driver deserves its own
isolation in preparation for intel_context becoming an outright
complicated class of its own.
In order to split this beast into its own header also requests splitting
several of its dependent types and their dependencies into their own
headers as well.
