[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 2/2] drm/i915: Avoid concurrent access when marking the device as idle/busy

Chris Wilson chris at chris-wilson.co.uk

Whilst marking the device as active is protect by struct_mutex, we would
mark the individual components as not-busy without any locking, leading
to potential confusion and missed powersaving (or even performance
loss). Move the softirq accesses to an atomic and defer the actual
update until we acquire the struct_mutex in the worker.
