[RFC PATCH v3 16/21] drm/exec: Introduce an evict mode

Locking for eviction is in some way different from locking for
submission:

1) We can't lock objects that are already locked for submission,
hence DRM_EXEC_IGNORE_DUPLICATES must be unset.
2) We must be able to re-lock objects locked for eviction,
either for submission or for yet another eviction, in
particular objects sharing a single resv must be considered.
3) There is no point to keep a contending object after the
transaction restart. We don't know whether we actually want to use
it again.

So introduce a drm_exec evict mode, and for now instead of
explicitly setting it using a function call or implement separate
locking functions that use evict mode, assume evict mode if
there is a snapshot registered. This can easily be changed later.

To keep track of resvs locked for eviction, use a pointer set
implemented by an xarray. This is probably not the most efficient
data structure but used as an easy-to-implement first approach.
If the set is empty (evict mode never used), the performance-
and memory usage impact will be very small.

TODO: Probably want to implement the set using an open addressing
hash table.
