In the next patch, we will want a third distinct class of timeline that
may overlap with the current pair of client and engine timeline classes.
Rather than use the ad hoc markup of SINGLE_DEPTH_NESTING, initialise
the different timeline classes with an explicit subclass.

As all backends implement the same pin_count mechanism and do a
dec-and-test as their first step, pull that into the common
intel_context_unpin(). This also pulls into the caller, eliminating the
indirect call in the usual steady state case. The intel_context_pin()
side is a little more complicated as it combines the lookup/alloc as
well as pinning the state, and so is left for a later date.

To ease the frequent and ugly pointer dance of
&request->gem_context->engine[request->engine->id] during request
submission, store that pointer as request->hw_context. One major
advantage that we will exploit later is that this decouples the logical
context state from the engine itself.

We need to move to a more flexible timeline that doesn't assume one
fence context per engine, and so allow for a single timeline to be used
across a combination of engines. This means that preallocating a fence
context per engine is now a hindrance, and so we want to introduce the
singular timeline. From the code perspective, this has the notable
advantage of clearing up a lot of mirky semantics and some clumsy
pointer chasing.
By splitting the timeline up into a single entity rather than an array
of per-engine timelines, we can realise the goal of the previous patch
of tracking the timeline alongside the ring.
v2: Tweak wait_for_idle to stop the compiling thinking that ret may be

In the future, we want to move a request between engines. To achieve
this, we first realise that we have two timelines in effect here. The
first runs through the GTT is required for ordering vma access, which is
tracked currently by engine. The second is implied by sequential
execution of commands inside the ringbuffer. This timeline is one that
maps to userspace's expectations when submitting requests (i.e. given the
same context, batch A is executed before batch B). As the rings's
timelines map to userspace and the GTT timeline an implementation
detail, move the timeline from the GTT into the ring itself (per-context
in logical-ring-contexts/execlists, or a global per-engine timeline for
the shared ringbuffers in legacy submission.
The two timelines are still assumed to be equivalent at the moment (no
migrating requests between engines yet) and so we can simply move from
one to the other without adding extra ordering.
v2: Reinforce that one isn't allowed to mix the engine execution
timeline with the client timeline from userspace (on the ring).

We don't need to track every ring for its lifetime as they are managed
by the contexts/engines. What we do want to track are the live rings so
that we can sporadically clean up requests if userspace falls behind. We
can simply restrict the gt->rings list to being only gt->live_rings.

In the next patch, rings are the central timeline as requests may jump
between engines. Therefore in the future as we retire in order along the
engine timeline, we may retire out-of-order within a ring (as the ring now
occurs along multiple engines), leading to much hilarity in miscomputing
the position of ring->head.
As an added bonus, retiring along the ring reduces the penalty of having
one execlists client do cleanup for another (old legacy submission
shares a ring between all clients). The downside is that slow and
irregular (off the critical path) process of cleaning up stale requests
after userspace becomes a modicum less efficient.
In the long run, it will become apparent that the ordered
ring->request_list matches the ring->timeline, a fun challenge for the
future will be unifying the two lists to avoid duplication!
v2: We need both engine-order and ring-order processing to maintain our
knowledge of where individual rings have completed upto as well as
knowing what was last executing on any engine. And finally by decoupling
retiring the contexts on the engine and the timelines along the rings,
we do have to keep a reference to the context on each request
(previously it was guaranteed by the context being pinned).
v3: Not just a reference to the context, but we need to keep it pinned
as we manipulate the rings; i.e. we need a pin for both the manipulation
of the engine state during its retirements, and a separate pin for the
manipulation of the ring state.

We want to de-emphasize the link between the request (dependency,
execution and fence tracking) from GEM and so rename the struct from
drm_i915_gem_request to i915_request. That is we may implement the GEM
user interface on top of requests, but they are an abstraction for
tracking execution rather than an implementation detail of GEM. (Since
they are not tied to HW, we keep the i915 prefix as opposed to intel.)
In short, the spatch:
@@
@@
- struct drm_i915_gem_request
+ struct i915_request
A corollary to contracting the type name, we also harmonise on using
'rq' shorthand for local variables where space if of the essence and
repetition makes 'request' unwieldy. For globals and struct members,
'request' is still much preferred for its clarity.

We don't actually emit any commands into the ringbuffer, so we set it
very small. However, an upcoming change centralises the wait-for-space
into i915_gem_request_alloc() and that imposes a minimum size upon all
ringbuffers (mock or real) of MIN_SPACE_FOR_ADD_REQUEST. Grow the
mock ringbuffer such that we allocate a single page for the struct+buffer,
satisfying the new condition without wasting too much space.

In the original selftest, we didn't care what the engine->id was, just
that it could uniquely identify it. Later though, we started tracking
the mock engines in the fixed size arrays around the drm_i915_private and
so we now require their indices to be correct. This becomes an issue when
using the standalone harness which runs all available tests at module load,
and so we quickly assign an out-of-bounds index to an engine as we
reallocate the mock GEM device between tests. It doesn't show up in
igt/drv_selftest as that runs each subtest individually.

Since unifying ringbuffer/execlist submission to use
engine->pin_context, we ensure that the intel_ring is available before
we start constructing the request. We can therefore move the assignment
of the request->ring to the central i915_gem_request_alloc() and not
require it in every engine->request_alloc() callback. Another small step
towards simplification (of the core, but at a cost of handling error
pointers in less important callers of engine->pin_context).
