The entire thing is substantially more messy, and my few quick attempts at
fixing this went flat.

The thing is, this _is_ the vm we use for execbuf, patch 8 changes intel
context initialization to also use this function. I do think it would make
sense to always set the right vm in gem_ctx->vm, but when I tried to do
that I've also tried to implement a bit stricter rules for
intel_context->vm. Currently that's initialized to the single gt vm deep
down in the per-type (virtual vs engine ctx) code, and then later on we'd
overwrite that. My idea was that we'd no longer set the intel_context->vm
in low-level code at all, but instead the variuos callers that create the
ctx either pass the right vm down, or set it after initial setup is done.

This way we'd be guaranteed that we never accidentally run a userspace
context on the kernel's gt vm, which would be bad.

The problem was that the entire refactor became really messy, and it was
conflicting against the GuC stuff and the changed engines there, so I
figured I'll drop it. There's more locking cleanup tbd, so I'll keep that
on the list of things. Maybe once intel_context creation is a bit more
untangled.
