Since the gt migration code was using only a single fence for
dependencies, these were collected in a dma_fence_array. However, it
turns out that it's illegal to use some dma_fences in a dma_fence_array,
in particular other dma_fence_arrays and dma_fence_chains, and this
causes trouble for us moving forward.
Have the gt migration code instead take a const struct i915_deps for
dependencies. This means we can skip the dma_fence_array creation
and instead pass the struct i915_deps instead to circumvent the
problem.
v2:
- Make the prev_deps() function static. (kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com>)
- Update the struct i915_deps kerneldoc.
v4:
- Rebase.

Update the PTE and emit a clear within a single unpreemptible packet
such that we can schedule and pipeline clears.

If we pipeline the PTE updates and then do the copy of those pages
within a single unpreemptible command packet, we can submit the copies
and leave them to be scheduled without having to synchronously wait
under a global lock. In order to manage migration, we need to
preallocate the page tables (and keep them pinned and available for use
at any time), causing a bottleneck for migrations as all clients must
contend on the limited resources. By inlining the ppGTT updates and
performing the blit atomically, each client only owns the PTE while in
use, and so we can reschedule individual operations however we see fit.
And most importantly, we do not need to take a global lock on the shared
vm, and wait until the operation is complete before releasing the lock
for others to claim the PTE for themselves.
