I remember now that the reason we add vmas to vm_bound list in
vm_bind call and doesn't require the subsequent execbuf3 to
automatically wait for those bindings to complete is because
the user can request a vm_bind out fence and send it as in fence
to the first execbuf3 call.
I will revert the change from v2 series and add vmas to vm_bound_list.
Execbuf3 still need to call __i915_request_await_bind() for all
bindings it does.
