[Intel-gfx] [RFC 27/39] drm/i915: Add sync wait support to scheduler

From: John Harrison <John.C.Harrison at Intel.com>

There is a sync framework to allow work for multiple independent
systems to be synchronised with each other but without stalling
the CPU whether in the application or the driver. This patch adds
support for this framework to the GPU scheduler.

Batch buffers can now have sync framework fence objects associated with
them. The scheduler will look at this fence when deciding what to
submit next to the hardware. If the fence is outstanding then that
batch buffer will be passed over in preference of one that is ready to
run. If no other batches are ready then the scheduler will queue an
asynchronous callback to be woken up when the fence has been
signalled. The callback will wake the scheduler and submit the now
ready batch buffer.

For: VIZ-1587
