[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 16/37] drm/i915: Always defer fenced work to the worker

Currently, if an error is raised we always call the cleanup locally
[and skip the main work callback]. However, some future users may need
to take a mutex to cleanup and so we cannot immediately execute the
cleanup as we may still be in interrupt context. For example, if we have
committed sensitive changes [like evicting from the ppGTT layout] that
are visible but gated behind the fence, we need to ensure those changes
are completed even after an error. [This does suggest the split between
the work/release callback is artificial and we may be able to simplify
the worker api by only requiring a single callback.]

With the execute-immediate flag, for most cases this should result in
immediate cleanup of an error.
