[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 2/2] drm/i915: Use rcu instead of stop_machine in set_wedged

stop_machine is not really a locking primitive we should use, except
when the hw folks tell us the hw is broken and that's the only way to
work around it.

This patch tries to address the locking abuse of stop_machine() from

    drm/i915: Stop the machine as we install the wedged submit_request handler

Chris said parts of the reasons for going with stop_machine() was that
it's no overhead for the fast-path. But these callbacks use irqsave
spinlocks and do a bunch of MMIO, and rcu_read_lock is _real_ fast.

To stay as close as possible to the stop_machine semantics we first
update all the submit function pointers to the nop handler, then call
synchronize_rcu() to make sure no new requests can be submitted. This
should give us exactly the huge barrier we want.

I pondered whether we should annotate engine->submit_request as __rcu
and use rcu_assign_pointer and rcu_dereference on it. But the reason
behind those is to make sure the compiler/cpu barriers are there for
when you have an actual data structure you point at, to make sure all
the writes are seen correctly on the read side. But we just have a
function pointer, and .text isn't changed, so no need for these
barriers and hence no need for annotations.

This should fix the followwing lockdep splat:

Chain exists of:
  cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem --> &mm->mmap_sem --> &dev->struct_mutex

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:
