As we only ever keep the first error state around, we can avoid some
work that can be quite intrusive if we don't record the error the second
time around. This does move the race whereby the user could discard one
error state as the second is being captured, but that race exists in the
current code and we hope that recapturing error state is only done for
debugging.
Note that as we discard the error state for simulated errors, igt that
exercise error capture continue to function.

After Joonas complained about using READ_ONCE() on the only use of the
variable in the function, where the intent was to simply document that
the read was intentionally racy and unlocked, I switched the READ_ONCE()
over to lockless_dereference(). However, in linux-next that has a
stronger type-check to only allow pointers and is no longer
interchangeable with READ_ONCE(), see commit 331b6d8c7a
("locking/barriers: Validate lockless_dereference() is used on a pointer
type")

Some IS_ and HAS_ macros can return any non-zero value for true.
One potential problem with that is that someone could assign
them to integers and be surprised with the result. Therefore it
is probably safer to do the conversion to 0/1 in the macros
themselves.
Luckily this does not seem to have an effect on code size.
Only one call site was getting bit by this and a patch for
that has been sent as "drm/i915/guc: Protect against HAS_GUC_*
returning true values other than one".
v2: Added some extra braces as suggested by checkpatch.

Since we now subclass struct drm_device, we can save pointer dances by
noting the equivalence of struct drm_device and struct drm_i915_private,
i.e. by using to_i915().

igt likes to inject GPU hangs into its command streams. However, as we
expect these hangs, we don't actually want them recorded in the dmesg
output or stored in the i915_error_state (usually). To accommodate this
allow userspace to set a flag on the context that any hang emanating
from that context will not be recorded. We still do the error capture
(otherwise how do we find the guilty context and know its intent?) as
part of the reason for random GPU hang injection is to exercise the race
conditions between the error capture and normal execution.
v2: Split out the request->ringbuf error capture changes.
v3: Move the flag defines next to the intel_context->flags definition

The request tells us where to read the ringbuf from, so use that
information to simplify the error capture. If no request was active at
the time of the hang, the ring is idle and there is no information
inside the ring pertaining to the hang.
Note carefully that this will reduce the amount of information stored in
the error state - any ring without an active request will not be
recorded.

Ideally, we want to automagically have the GPU respond to the
instantaneous load by reclocking itself. However, reclocking occurs
relatively slowly, and to the client waiting for a result from the GPU,
too late. To compensate and reduce the client latency, we allow the
first wait from a client to boost the GPU clocks to maximum. This
overcomes the lag in autoreclocking, at the expense of forcing the GPU
clocks too high. So to offset the excessive power usage, we currently
allow a client to only boost the clocks once before we detect the GPU
is idle again. This works reasonably for say the first frame in a
benchmark, but for many more synchronous workloads (like OpenCL) we find
the GPU clocks remain too low. By noting a wait which would idle the GPU
(i.e. we just waited upon the last known request), we can give that
client the idle boost credit (for their next wait) without the 100ms
delay required for us to detect the GPU idle state. The intention is to
boost clients that are stalling in the process of feeding the GPU more
work (and who in doing so let the GPU idle), without granting boost
credits to clients that are throttling themselves (such as compositors).

Rather than persistently postponing the idle-work everytime somebody
calls i915_gem_retire_requests() (potentially ensuring that we never
reach the idle state), queue the work the first time we detect all
requests are complete. Then if in 100ms, more requests have been queued,
we will abort the idle-worker and wait again until all the new requests
have been completed.
Of course, this does depend upon the idle worker cancelling itself
gracefully from the previous patch.

The retire worker is a low frequency task that makes sure we retire
outstanding requests if userspace is being lax. We only need to start it
once as it remains active until the GPU is idle, so do a cheap test
before the more expensive queue_work(). A consequence of this is that we
need correct locking in the worker to make the hot path of request
submission cheap. To keep the symmetry and keep hangcheck strictly bound
by the GPU's wakelock, we move the cancel_sync(hangcheck) to the idle
worker before dropping the wakelock.
v2: Guard against RCU fouling the breadcrumbs bottom-half whilst we kick
the waiter.
v3: Remove the wakeref assertion squelching (now we hold a wakeref for
the hangcheck, any rpm error there is genuine).
v4: To prevent excess work when retiring requests, we split the busy
flag into two, a boolean to denote whether we hold the wakeref and a
bitmask of active engines.
v5: Reorder cancelling hangcheck upon idling to avoid a race where we
might cancel a hangcheck after being preempted by a new task
