This (partially) reverts

    drm/i915: Invalidate our pages under memory pressure

It appears given the right workload, that pages which are swapped out
more than once are incorrectly invalidated and discarded. I had presumed
that the swapin would mark the pages dirty again and so preserve them
against the next cycle of invalidation - that appears to be false, and
leads to memory corruption (even leak of stale pages to userspace).

v2: Do a more throughrought revert and als get rid of the hunk in
gem_free_objects which we've tried to patch up already in

    drm/i915: Only discard backing storage on releasing the last ref

This means this patch also fully reverts this fixup. Apparently this
is just too tricky.
