[PATCH 3/6] drm/ttm: call ttm_bo_cleanup_refs with reservation and lru lock held, v3

By removing the unlocking of lru and retaking it immediately, a race is
removed where the bo is taken off the swap list or the lru list between
the unlock and relock. As such the cleanup_refs code can be simplified,
it will attempt to call ttm_bo_wait non-blockingly, and if it fails
it will drop the locks and perform a blocking wait, or return an error
if no_wait_gpu was set.

The need for looping is also eliminated, since swapout and evict_mem_first
will always follow the destruction path, no new fence is allowed
to be attached. As far as I can see this may already have been the case,
but the unlocking / relocking required a complicated loop to deal with
re-reservation.

Changes since v1:
 - Simplify no_wait_gpu case by folding it in with empty ddestroy.
 - Hold a reservation while calling ttm_bo_cleanup_memtype_use again.
Changes since v2:
 - Do not remove bo from lru list while waiting
