In commit a79ca656b648 ("drm/i915: Push the wakeref->count deferral to
the backend"), I erroneously concluded that we last modify the engine
inside __i915_request_commit() meaning that we could enable concurrent
submission for userspace as we enqueued this request. However, this
falls into a trap with other users of the engine->kernel_context waking
up and submitting their request before the idle-switch is queued, with
the result that the kernel_context is executed out-of-sequence most
likely upsetting the GPU and certainly ourselves when we try to retire
the out-of-sequence requests.
As such we need to hold onto the effective engine->kernel_context mutex
lock (via the engine pm mutex proxy) until we have finish queuing the
request to the engine.
