Looks good and pretty standalone to me (depends on i915_gem_request code 
movement only I think). Just one question below.

Since you remove LRC pin from queue, the lifetime is now either:

1. From request create to cancel.
2. From request create to execlist retirement.

Would it be more logical to leave the LRC pin in queue, but remove it 
from request creation instead? That would make the LRC pin lifetime only 
a single possibility, from queue to execlist retire.
