[PATCH] Revert "drm/i915: Remove extra multi-gt pm-references"

This reverts commit 1f33dc0c1189efb9ae19c6fc22b64dd3e26261fb.

There was a patch supposed to fix an issue of illegal attempts to free a
still active i915 VMA object when parking a GT believed to be idle,
reported by CI on 2-GT Meteor Lake.  As a solution, an extra wakeref for
a Primary GT was acquired from i915_gem_do_execbuffer() -- see commit
f56fe3e91787 ("drm/i915: Fix a VMA UAF for multi-gt platform").

However, that fix occurred insufficient -- the issue was still reported by
CI.  That wakeref was released on exit from i915_gem_do_execbuffer(), then
potentially before completion of the request and deactivation of its
associated VMAs.  Moreover, CI reports indicated that single-GT platforms
also suffered sporadically from the same race.

Since that issue was fixed by another commit f3c71b2ded5c ("drm/i915/vma:
Fix UAF on destroy against retire race"), the changes introduced by that
insufficient fix were dropped as no longer useful.  However, that series
resulted in another VMA UAF scenario now being triggered in CI.

We defer actually closing, unbinding and destroying a VMA until next idle
point, or until the object is freed in the meantime.  By postponing the
unbind, we allow for the VMA to be reopened by the client, avoiding the
work required to rebind the VMA.

Starting from commit b0647a5e79b1 ("drm/i915: Avoid live-lock with
i915_vma_parked()"), we assume that as long as a GT is held idle, no VMA
would be reopened while we destroy them.  That assumption is no longer
true in multi-GT configurations, where a VMA we reopen may be handled by a
GT different from the one that we already keep active via its engine while
we set up an execbuf request.

Restoring the extra GT0 PM wakeref removed from i915_gem_do_execbuffer()
processing path seems to fix this issue.
