    drm/i915: Revoke mmaps and prevent access to fence registers across reset

    Previously, we were able to rely on the recursive properties of
    struct_mutex to allow us to serialise revoking mmaps and reacquiring the
    FENCE registers with them being clobbered over a global device reset.
    I then proceeded to throw out the baby with the bath water in order to
    pursue a struct_mutex-less reset.

    Perusing LWN for alternative strategies, the dilemma on how to serialise
    access to a global resource on one side was answered by
    https://lwn.net/Articles/202847/ -- Sleepable RCU:

        1  int readside(void) {
        2      int idx;
        3      rcu_read_lock();
        4      if (nomoresrcu) {
        5          rcu_read_unlock();
        6          return -EINVAL;
        7      }
        8      idx = srcu_read_lock(&ss);
        9      rcu_read_unlock();
        10     /* SRCU read-side critical section. */
        11     srcu_read_unlock(&ss, idx);
        12     return 0;
        13 }
        14
        15 void cleanup(void)
        16 {
        17     nomoresrcu = 1;
        18     synchronize_rcu();
        19     synchronize_srcu(&ss);
        20     cleanup_srcu_struct(&ss);
        21 }

    No more worrying about stop_machine, just an uber-complex mutex,
    optimised for reads, with the overhead pushed to the rare reset path.

    However, we do run the risk of a deadlock as we allocate underneath the
    SRCU read lock, and the allocation may require a GPU reset, causing a
    dependency cycle via the in-flight requests. We resolve that by declaring
    the driver wedged and cancelling all in-flight rendering.

    v2: Use expedited rcu barriers to match our earlier timing
    characteristics.
    v3: Try to annotate locking contexts for sparse
    v4: Reduce selftest lock duration to avoid a reset deadlock with fences
    v5: s/srcu/reset_backoff_srcu/
    v6: Remove more stale comments

struct_mutex")
