[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v2 09/12] drm/i915: Move context initialisation to first-use

[Chris Wilson]

Instead of allocating a new request when allocating a context, use the
request that initiated the allocation to emit the context
initialisation. This serves two purposes, it makes the initialisation
atomic with first use (simplifying scheduling and our own error
handling). Secondly, it enables us to remove the explicit context
allocation required by higher levels of GEM and make that property of
execlists opaque (in the next patch). There is also a minor step
forwards towards convergence of legacy/execlist contexts.
