[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 1/4] drm/i915/execlists: Pull tasklet interrupt-bh local to direct submission

[Chris Wilson]

We dropped calling process_csb prior to handling direct submission in
order to avoid the nesting of spinlocks and lift process_csb() and the
majority of the tasklet out of irq-off. However, we do want to avoid
ksoftirqd latency in the fast path, so try and pull the interrupt-bh
local to direct submission if we can acquire the tasklet's lock.
