[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 62/70] drm/i915: Reduce locking inside busy ioctl

We can do the trivial check for an inactive buffer without acquiring the
struct_mutex reducing contention. If we are required to flush the object
and check for retirements, then we do indeed have to resort to taking
the struct_mutex
