[PATCH 00/26] Parallel submission aka multi-bb execbuf

As discussed in [1] we are introducing a new parallel submission uAPI
for the i915 which allows more than 1 BB to be submitted in an execbuf
IOCTL. This is the implemenation for both GuC and execlists.

In addition to selftests in the series, an IGT is available implemented
in the first 4 patches [2].

The execbuf IOCTL changes have been done in a single large patch (#21)
as all the changes flow together and I believe a single patch will be
better if some one has to lookup this change in the future. Can split in
a series of smaller patches if desired.

This code is available in a public [3] repo for UMD teams to test there
code on.

v2: Drop complicated state machine to block in kernel if no guc_ids
available, perma-pin parallel contexts, reworker execbuf IOCTL to be a
series of loops inside the IOCTL rather than 1 large one on the outside,
address Daniel Vetter's comments
v3: Address John Harrison's comments, add a couple of patches which fix
bugs found internally
