    drm/i915: Capture vma contents outside of spinlock

    Currently we use the engine->active.lock to ensure that the request is
    not retired as we capture the data. However, we only need to ensure that
    the vma are not removed prior to use acquiring their contents, and
    since we have already relinquished our stop-machine protection, we
    assume that the user will not be overwriting the contents before we are
    able to record them.

    In order to capture the vma outside of the spinlock, we acquire a
    reference and mark the vma as active to prevent it from being unbound.
    However, since it is tricky allocate an entry in the fence tree (doing
    so would require taking a mutex) while inside the engine spinlock, we
    use an atomic bit and special case the handling for i915_active_wait.

    The core benefit is that we can use some non-atomic methods for mapping
    the device pages, we can remove the slow compression phase out of atomic
    context (i.e. stop antagonising the nmi-watchdog), and no we longer need
    large reserves of atomic pages.
