[PATCH v3 4/5] drm/amdgpu: use bulk moves for efficient VM LRU handling (v3)

I continue to work for bulk moving that based on the proposal by Christian.

Background:
amdgpu driver will move all PD/PT and PerVM BOs into idle list. Then move all of
them on the end of LRU list one by one. Thus, that cause so many BOs moved to
the end of the LRU, and impact performance seriously.

Then Christian provided a workaround to not move PD/PT BOs on LRU with below
patch:
"drm/amdgpu: band aid validating VM PTs"
Commit 0bbf32026cf5ba41e9922b30e26e1bed1ecd38ae

However, the final solution should bulk move all PD/PT and PerVM BOs on the LRU
instead of one by one.

Whenever amdgpu_vm_validate_pt_bos() is called and we have BOs which need to be
validated we move all BOs together to the end of the LRU without dropping the
lock for the LRU.

While doing so we note the beginning and end of this block in the LRU list.

Now when amdgpu_vm_validate_pt_bos() is called and we don't have anything to do,
we don't move every BO one by one, but instead cut the LRU list into pieces so
that we bulk move everything to the end in just one operation.

After test them with above three benchmarks include vulkan and opencl. We can
see the visible improvement than original, and even better than original with
workaround.

v2: move all BOs include idle, relocated, and moved list to the end of LRU and
put them together.
v3: remove unused parameter and use list_for_each_entry instead of the one with
save entry.
