[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 1/2] drm/i915: Unbind objects in shrinker only if device is runtime active

[Mika Kuoppala]

From: Praveen Paneri <praveen.paneri at intel.com>

When the system is running low on memory, gem shrinker is invoked.
In this process objects will be unbounded from GTT and unbinding process
will require access to GTT(GTTADR) and also to fence register potentially.
That requires a resume of gfx device, if suspended, in the shrinker path.
Considering the power leakage due to intermediate resume, perform unbinding
operation only if device is already runtime active.

v2: Using newly implemented intel_runtime_pm_get_if_in_use()
