Ben Widawsky 8436473a4b drm/i915: drm/i915: Fix recursive calls to unmap
After the ILK vt-d workaround patches it became clear that we had
introduced a bug.  Chris Wilson tracked down the issue to recursive
calls to unmap. This happens because we try to optimize waiting on
requests by calling retire requests after the wait, which may drop the
last reference on an object and end up freeing the object (and then
unmap the object from the gtt).

After the last patch we can now choose to defer processing the retire
list.

Kudos to Chris Wilson for tracking this one down.

This patch fixes gem_unref_active_buffers from i-g-t. It was tested by
forcing do_idle_maps to true.

This also fixes tests/gem_linear_blits in intel-gpu-tools.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
