When updating the error capture code and introducing vma snapshots,
we introduced code to hold the vma in memory while capturing it,
calling i915_active_acquire_if_busy(). Now that function isn't relevant
for perma-pinned vmas and caused important vmas to be dropped from the
coredump. Like for example the GuC log.
Fix this by instead requiring those vmas to be pinned while capturing.
Tested by running the initial subtests of the gem_exec_capture igt test
with GuC submission enabled and verifying that a GuC log blob appears
in the output.
Fixes: ff20afc4cee7 ("drm/i915: Update error capture code to avoid using the current vma state")
