[RFC PATCH 116/162] drm/i915/dsb: Enable lmem for dsb

From: Animesh Manna <animesh.manna at intel.com>

For dgfx, DSB should use local memory instead of system memory. Using
local memory surely brings performance improvement as local memory is
close to gpu. Also want to avoid multiple gpu using system memory.

Use LMEM API to create gem object needed for DSB command buffer.
