Tvrtko Ursulin 722f3de39e i915/oa: Simplify updating contexts
We can remove the update-via-batch-buffer code path, which is basically an
effective duplicate of update-via-context-image path, if we notice that
after we have idled the GPU, we can update the context image even of the
kernel context directly. (Update-via-batch-buffer path existed only to
solve the problem of how to update the kernel context image.)

Only additional thing needed is to activate the edited configuration by
sending one empty request down the pipe. This accomplishes context restore
of the updated kernel context and so the OA configuration gets written out
to it's control registers.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
