[PATCH] drm/amdkfd: avoid recursive lock in migrations back to RAM

[Alex Sierra]

[Why]:
When we call hmm_range_fault to map memory after a migration, we don't
expect memory to be migrated again as a result of hmm_range_fault. The
driver ensures that all memory is in GPU-accessible locations so that
no migration should be needed. However, there is one corner case where
hmm_range_fault can unexpectedly cause a migration from DEVICE_PRIVATE
back to system memory due to a write-fault when a system memory page in
the same range was mapped read-only (e.g. COW). Ranges with individual
pages in different locations are usually the result of failed page
migrations (e.g. page lock contention). The unexpected migration back
to system memory causes a deadlock from recursive locking in our
driver.

[How]:
Creating a task reference new member under svm_range_list_init struct.
Setting this with "current" reference, right before the hmm_range_fault
is called. This member is checked against "current" reference at
svm_migrate_to_ram callback function. If equal, the migration will be
ignored.
