[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Preallocate mmu notifier to unbreak cpu hotplug deadlock

4.14-rc1 gained the fancy new cross-release support in lockdep, which
seems to have uncovered a few more rules about what is allowed and
isn't.

This one here seems to indicate that allocating a work-queue while
holding mmap_sem is a no-go, so let's try to preallocate it.

Of course another way to break this chain would be somewhere in the
cpu hotplug code, since this isn't the only trace we're finding now
which goes through msr_create_device.

Full lockdep splat:

other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

Patch itself pretty much untested, I just want to figure out whether
we should fix this (and similar backtraces going through
msr_create_device) in i915, or whether the cpu hotplug folks will take
care of them all.

Afaict this is not because of changes in 4.14-rc1, but really only due
to the new cross-release checks.

Note that the above trace is on top of -rc3 (plus plenty of drm/i915
stuff), so should have Peter's recent lockdep fixes for cpu up vs.
down already.
