Our goal is to remove struct_mutex and replace it with fine grained
locking. One of the thorny issues is our eviction logic for reclaiming
space for an execbuffer (or GTT mmaping, among a few other examples).
While eviction itself is easy to move under a per-VM mutex, performing
the activity tracking is less agreeable. One solution is not to do any
MRU tracking and do a simple coarse evaluation during eviction of
active/inactive, with a loose temporal ordering of last
insertion/evaluation. That keeps all the locking constrained to when we
are manipulating the VM itself, neatly avoiding the tricky handling of
possible recursive locking during execbuf and elsewhere.
Note that discarding the MRU (currently implemented as a pair of lists,
to avoid scanning the active list for a NONBLOCKING search) is unlikely
to impact upon our efficiency to reclaim VM space (where we think a LRU
model is best) as our current strategy is to use random idle replacement
first before doing a search, and over time the use of softpinned 48b
per-ppGTT is growing (thereby eliminating any need to perform any eviction
searches, in theory at least) with the remaining users being found on
much older devices (gen2-gen6).
v2: Changelog and commentary rewritten to elaborate on the duality of a
single list being both an inactive and active list.
v3: Consolidate bool parameters into a single set of flags; don't
comment on the duality of a single variable being a multiplicity of
bits.
