[PATCH v2] drm/xe: Defer buffer object shrinker write-backs and GPU waits

[Thomas Hellström]

When the xe buffer-object shrinker allows GPU waits and write-back,
(typically from kswapd), perform multiple passes, skipping
subsequent passes if the shrinker number of scanned objects target
is reached.

1) Without GPU waits and write-back
2) Without write-back
3) With both GPU-waits and write-back

This is to avoid stalls and costly write- and readbacks unless they
are really necessary.

v2:
- Don't test for scan completion twice. (Stuart Summers)
- Update tags.
