[RFC 6/7] drm/i915: Fail too long user submissions by default

From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin at intel.com>

A new Kconfig option CONFIG_DRM_I915_REQUEST_TIMEOUT is added, defaulting
to 10s, and this timeout is applied to _all_ contexts using the previously
added watchdog facility.

Result of this is that any user submission will simply fail after this
time, either causing a reset (for non-preemptable) or incomplete results.

This can have an effect that workloads which used to work fine will
suddenly start failing.

When the default expiry is active userspace will not be allowed to
decrease the timeout using the context param setting.
