[Intel-gfx] [PATCH V2] drm/i915/gem: Use large rings for compute contexts

[Tejas Upadhyay]

From: Chris Wilson <chris.p.wilson at intel.com>

Allow compute contexts to submit the maximal amount of work without
blocking userspace.

The original size for user LRC ring's (SZ_16K) was chosen to minimise
memory consumption, without being so small as to frequently stall in the
middle of workloads. With the main consumers being GL / media pipelines
of 2 or 3 batches per frame, we want to support ~10 requests in flight
to allow for the application to control throttling without stalling
within a frame.

v2:
  - cover with else part
