[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v2] drm/i915: Handle Intel igfx + Intel dgfx hybrid graphics setup

From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin at intel.com>

In short this makes i915 work for hybrid setups (DRI_PRIME=1 with Mesa)
when rendering is done on Intel dgfx and scanout/composition on Intel
igfx.

Before this patch the driver was not quite ready for that setup, mainly
because it was able to emit a semaphore wait between the two GPUs, which
results in deadlocks because semaphore target location in HWSP is neither
shared between the two, nor mapped in both GGTT spaces.

To fix it the patch adds an additional check to a couple of relevant code
paths in order to prevent using semaphores for inter-engine
synchronisation between different driver instances.

Patch also moves singly used i915_gem_object_last_write_engine to be
private in its only calling unit (debugfs), while modifying it to only
show activity belonging to the respective driver instance.

What remains in this problem space is the question of the GEM busy ioctl.
We have a somewhat ambigous comment there saying only status of native
fences will be reported, which could be interpreted as either i915, or
native to the drm fd. For now I have decided to leave that as is, meaning
any i915 instance activity continues to be reported.

v2:
 * Avoid adding rq->i915. (Chris)
