At the moment we are using 9 registers, add in say 128 bytes tops for
the request overhead, that's <300 bytes. The kernel context uses 4k
rings, so enough for a few updates before we have to flush. We may have
to wait for external rings to idle and be interrupt -- but that's the
same as before, including the chance that we may be interrupted in the
middle of conversion.
The worst case is that we overrun the ring and we should get a juicy
warning (GEM_BUG_ON or -ENOSPC) in that case. We can increase the
kernel_context ring if that's an issue or just fallback to suballocating
a batchbuffer for the updates.

Ah, it's just ce->sseu giving the appearance of it being context
specific :)
