[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 00/16] Enabling GEN8 full PPGTT + fixes

[Ben Widawsky]

Here be all the patches to make full PPGTT relatively stable on Broadwell. Most
of the work was actually to the generic PPGTT code, and not BDW specific. There
are basically 3 fixes:
1. Make the error state not horrible, but more work still needed.
2. Fix up another tricky from != from case in do_switch
3. Generally more graceful handling in ppgtt_release

1. Various forms of this subseries have shown up on the list from both
myself, and Chris (and I feel like Mika, also). For whatever reason,
none have been merged. I don't necessarily mind missing information, but
without these patches we can OOPs and GP fault in the error state, which
is not acceptable.

2. The meat of the debugging came here. Essentially this problem has
already been seen, and solved. The issue is, there is another spot in
do_switch that can invoke a switch to the default context. We probably
want to get slightly better handling of this, but for now this solves my
problems.

3. There are 2 categories addressed in this bucket. Reset, and signals.  The
patches themselves explain the situation. I take a two step approach with this
where first I make things correct (and slow as heck), and then I do the more
optimal and trickier solution. Both of these are in line to be replaced by
Daniel, but I needed something sooner.

Here is the test case that caught all of the above issues:
while [ 1 ] ;  do
        (glxgears) & pid[0]=$!
        (glxgears) & pid[1]=$!
        (glxgears) & pid[2]=$!
        sleep 3
        kill ${pid[*]}
done
