This series implements TTM shrinker / eviction helpers and an xe bo
shrinker. It builds on two previous series, *and obsoletes these*. First

Second the previous TTM shrinker series

now addressed, and this version also implements shmem objects for backup
rather than direct swap-cache insertions, which was used in the previuos
series. It turns out that with per-page backup / shrinking, shmem objects
appears to work just as well as direct swap-cache insertions with the
added benefit that was introduced in the previous TTM shrinker series to
avoid running out of swap entries isn't really needed.

Patch 1-4 implements restartable LRU list iteration.

Patch 5 implements a LRU walker + resv locking helper

Patch 6 moves TTM swapping over to the walker.

Patch 7 moves TTM eviction over to the walker.

Patch 8 could in theory be skipped but introduces a possibility to easily
add or test multiple backup backends, like the direct swap-cache
insertion or even files into fast dedicated nvme storage for for example.

Patch 9 introduces helpers in the ttm_pool code for page-by-page shrinking
and recovery. It avoids having to temporarily allocate a huge amount of
memory to be able to shrink a buffer object. It also introduces the
possibility to immediately write-back pages if needed, since that tends
to be a bit delayed when left to kswapd.

Patch 10 Adds a simple error injection to the above code to help increase
test coverage.

Patch 11 Implements an xe bo shrinker and a common helper in TTM for
shrinking.

Patch 12-21 are really a separate POC series, for introducing drm_exec locking
in TTM. The patch touches both drm_exec and dma-buf and is for now marked as
an RFC:

Patch 12 Introduces dma_resv_trylock_ctx.

Patches 13-14 deal with introducing drm_exec_trylock.

Patch 15 adds a snapshot capability to drm_exec.

Patch 16 adds an evict mode locking capability to drm_exec

Patch 17 converts the LRU + locking walker to drm_exec.

Patch 18 converts TTM vm to use drm_exec.

Patch 19 converts the xe fault handler to drm_exec.

Patch 20 converts bo initialization locking to drm_exec

Patch 21 introduces drm_exec locking around some of the
bo validation callsites in drm_exec.

v2:
- Squash obsolete revision history in the patch commit messages.
- Fix a couple of review comments by Christian
- Don't store the mem_type in the TTM managers but in the
  resource cursor.
- Rename introduced TTM *back_up* function names to *backup*
- Add ttm pool recovery fault injection.
- Shrinker xe kunit test
- Various bugfixes

v3:
- Address some review comments from Matthew Brost and Christian König.
- Use the restartable LRU walk for TTM swapping and eviction.
- Provide a POC drm_exec locking implementation for exhaustive
  eviction. (Christian König).
