Currently, we only track the last request globally across all engines.
This prevents us from issuing concurrent read requests on e.g. the RCS
and BCS engines (or more likely the render and media engines). Without
semaphores, we incur costly stalls as we synchronise between rings -
greatly impacting the current performance of Broadwell versus Haswell in
certain workloads (like video decode). With the introduction of
reference counted requests, it is much easier to track the last request
per ring, as well as the last global write request so that we can
optimise inter-engine read read requests (as well as better optimise
certain CPU waits).
v2: Fix inverted readonly condition for nonblocking waits.
v3: Handle non-continguous engine array after waits
v4: Rebase, tidy, rewrite ring list debugging
v5: Use obj->active as a bitfield, it looks cool
v6: Micro-optimise, mostly involving moving code around
v7: Fix retire-requests-upto for execlists (and multiple rq->ringbuf)
v8: Rebase
v9: Refactor i915_gem_object_sync() to allow the compiler to better
optimise it.

Shamelessly manipulated out of Daniel :-)
"When moving the lists around explain that the active/inactive stuff is
used by eviction when we run out of address space, so needs to be
per-vma and per-address space. Bound/unbound otoh is used by the
shrinker which only cares about the amount of memory used and not one
bit about in which address space this memory is all used in. Of course
to actual kick out an object we need to unbind it from every address
space, but for that we have the per-object list of vmas."
v2: Leave the bound list as a global one. (Chris, indirectly)
v3: Rebased with no i915_gtt_vm. In most places I added a new *vm local,
since it will eventually be replaces by a vm argument.
Put comment back inline, since it no longer makes sense to do otherwise.
v4: Rebased on hangcheck/error state movement

Remove redundant DRM UAPI header #inclusions from drivers/gpu/.
Remove redundant #inclusions of core DRM UAPI headers (drm.h, drm_mode.h and
drm_sarea.h). They are now #included via drmP.h and drm_crtc.h via a preceding
patch.
Without this patch and the patch to make include the UAPI headers from the core
headers, after the UAPI split, the DRM C sources cannot find these UAPI headers
because the DRM code relies on specific -I flags to make #include "..." work
on headers in include/drm/ - but that does not work after the UAPI split without
adding more -I flags.

Simplify object tracking by removing the inactive but pinned list. The
only place where this was used is for counting the available memory,
which is just as easy performed by checking all objects on the rare
occasions it is required (application startup). For ease of debugging,
we keep the reporting of pinned objects through the error-state and
debugfs.

This is a baby-step in the direction of having finer-grained
locking than the struct_mutex. Specifically, this will enable
new debugging code to read the active list for printing out
GPU state when the GPU is wedged, (while the struct_mutex is
held, of course).

GEM allows the creation of persistent buffer objects accessible by the
graphics device through new ioctls for managing execution of commands on the
device. The userland API is almost entirely driver-specific to ensure that
any driver building on this model can easily map the interface to individual
driver requirements.
GEM is used by the 2d driver for managing its internal state allocations and
will be used for pixmap storage to reduce memory consumption and enable
zero-copy GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap, and in the 3d driver is used to enable
GL_EXT_framebuffer_object and GL_ARB_pixel_buffer_object.
