[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 3/6] drm/i915: simplify allocation of driver-internal requests

[Dave Gordon]

There are a number of places where the driver needs a request, but isn't
working on behalf of any specific user or in a specific context. For
such requests, we associate them with the default context for the engine
that the request will be submitted to.

This patch provides a shorthand for doing such request allocations and
changes all such calls to use the new function.
