[igt-dev] [PATCH i-g-t 08/12] lib/intel_ctx: Add xe context information

Most complicated part in adopting i915_blt to intel_blt - which should
handle both drivers - is how to achieve pipelined execution. In term
pipelined execution I mean all gpu workloads are executed without
stalls.

Comparing to i915 relocations and softpinning xe architecture migrates
binding (this means also unbind operation) responsibility from the
kernel to user via vm_bind ioctl(). To avoid stalls user has to
provide in/out fences (syncobjs) between consecutive bindings/execs.
Of course for many igt tests we don't need pipelined execution,
just synchronous bind, then exec. But exercising the driver should
also cover pipelining to verify it is possible to work without stalls.

I decided to extend intel_ctx_t with all necessary for xe objects
(vm, engine, syncobjs) to get flexibility in deciding how to bind,
execute and wait for (synchronize) those operations. Context object
along with i915 engine is already passed to blitter library so adding
xe required fields doesn't break i915 but will allow xe path to get
all necessary data to execute.

Using intel_ctx with xe requires some code patterns caused by usage
of an allocator. For xe the allocator started tracking alloc()/free()
operations to do bind/unbind in one call just before execution.
I've added two helpers in intel_ctx which - intel_ctx_xe_exec()
and intel_ctx_xe_sync(). Depending how intel_ctx was created
(with 0 or real syncobj handles as in/bind/out fences) bind and exec
in intel_ctx_xe_exec() are pipelined but synchronize last operation
(exec). For real syncobjs they are used to join bind + exec calls
but there's no wait for exec (sync-out) completion. This allows
building more cascaded bind + exec operations without stalls.

To wait for a sync-out fence caller may use intel_ctx_xe_sync()
which is synchronous wait on syncobj. It allows user to reset
fences to prepare for next operation.
