We want to hide the latency of releasing objects and their backing storage from the submission, so we move the actual free to a worker. This allows us to switch to struct_mutex freeing of the object in the next patch. Furthermore, if we know that the object we are dereferencing remains valid for the duration of our access, we can forgo the usual synchronisation barriers and atomic reference counting. To ensure this we defer freeing an object til after an RCU grace period, such that any lookup of the object within an RCU read critical section will remain valid until after we exit that critical section. We also employ this delay for rate-limiting the serialisation on reallocation - we have to slow down object creation in order to prevent resource starvation (in particular, files). v2: Return early in i915_gem_tiling() ioctl to skip over superfluous work on error.
