[PATCH v3 5/6] drm/i915: Introduce 'priority offset' for GPU contexts (v2)

There are cases where a system integrator may wish to raise/lower the
priority of GPU workloads being submitted by specific OS process(es),
independently of how the software self-classifies its own priority.
Exposing "priority offset" as an i915-specific cgroup parameter will
enable such system-level configuration.

Normally GPU contexts start with a priority value of 0
(I915_CONTEXT_DEFAULT_PRIORITY) and then may be adjusted up/down from
there via other mechanisms.  We'd like to provide a system-level input
to the priority decision that will be taken into consideration, even
when userspace later attempts to set an absolute priority value via
I915_CONTEXT_PARAM_PRIORITY.  The priority offset introduced here
provides a base value that will always be added to (or subtracted from)
the software's self-assigned priority value.

This patch makes priority offset a cgroup-specific value; contexts will
be created with a priority offset based on the cgroup membership of the
process creating the context at the time the context is created.  Note
that priority offset is assigned at context creation time; migrating a
process to a different cgroup or changing the offset associated with a
cgroup will only affect new context creation and will not alter the
behavior of existing contexts previously created by the process.

v2:
 - Rebase onto new cgroup_priv API
 - Use current instead of drm_file->pid to determine which process to
   lookup priority for. (Chris)
 - Don't forget to subtract priority offset in context_getparam ioctl to
   make it match setparam behavior. (Chris)
