[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 18/39] drm/i915/execlists: Skip direct submission if only lite-restore

[Chris Wilson]

If resubmitting the active context, simply skip the submission as
performing the submission from the interrupt handler has higher
throughput than continually provoking lite-restores. If however, we find
ourselves with a new client, we check whether or not we can dequeue into
the second port or to resolve preemption.
