[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 2/8] drm/i915: Avoid live-lock with i915_vma_parked()

Abuse^W Take advantage that we know we are inside the GT wakeref and
that prevents any client execbuf from reopening the i915_vma in order to
claim all the vma to close without having to drop the spinlock to free
each one individually. By keeping the spinlock, we do not have to
restart if we run concurrently with i915_gem_free_objects -- which
causes them both to restart continually and make very very slow
progress.

Closes: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/issues/1361
Fixes: 77853186e547 ("drm/i915: Claim vma while under closed_lock in i915_vma_parked()")
