Usually we have no idea about the upper bound we need to wait to catch
up with userspace when idling the device, but in a few situations we
know the system was idle beforehand and can provide a short timeout in
order to very quickly catch a failure, long before hangcheck kicks in.
In the following patches, we will use the timeout to curtain two overly
long waits, where we know we can expect the GPU to complete within a
reasonable time or declare it broken.
In particular, with a broken GPU we expect it to fail during the initial
GPU setup where do a couple of context switches to record the defaults.
This is a task that takes a few milliseconds even on the slowest of
devices, but we may have to wait 60s for hangcheck to give in and
declare the machine inoperable. In this a case where any gpu hang is
unacceptable, both from a timeliness and practical standpoint.
The other improvement is that in selftests, we do not need to arm an
independent timer to inject a wedge, as we can just limit the timeout on
the wait directly.
v2: Include the timeout parameter in the trace.

Handling such a late error in request construction is tricky, but to
accommodate future patches which may allocate here, we potentially could
err. To handle the error after already adjusting global state to track
the new request, we must finish and submit the request. But we don't
want to use the request as not everything is being tracked by it, so we
opt to cancel the commands inside the request.

This patch unifies the naming of DRM functions for reference counting
of struct drm_device. The resulting code is more aligned with the rest
of the Linux kernel interfaces.

For symmetry, simplicity and ensuring the request is always truly idle
upon its completion, always emit the closing flush prior to emitting the
request breadcrumb. Previously, we would only emit the flush if we had
started a user batch, but this just leaves all the other paths open to
speculation (do they affect the GPU caches or not?) With mm switching, a
key requirement is that the GPU is flushed and invalidated before hand,
so for absolute safety, we want that closing flush be mandatory.

In the near future, I want to subclass gen6_hw_ppgtt as it contains a
few specialised members and I wish to add more. To avoid the ugliness of
using ppgtt->base.base, rename the i915_hw_ppgtt base member
(i915_address_space) as vm, which is our common shorthand for an
i915_address_space local.

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.
