The i915_gem_object_flush_active() call used to do lots. Over time it has done
less and less. Now all it does check the various associated requests to see if
they can be retired. Hence this patch renames the function and updates the
comments around it to match the current operation.

For: VIZ-5115
Signed-off-by: John Harrison <John.C.Harrison@xxxxxxxxx>
When rebasing patches and especially like here when also renaming them a
bit please leave some indication of what you've changed. Took me a while
to figure out where one of my pending comments from the previous round
went too.

The thing is that this isn't really a rebase of a previous patch. It is a completely different patch. The original version was removing this function entirely as it had become a trivial wrapper around a call to i915_gem_retire_requests_ring(). Whereas, some of Chris Wilson's work in the meantime has meant that it is now a non-trivial wrapper. Hence the function cannot be removed. However, it is not doing what its name or comment says. So this new patch is just renaming it and updating the comment to be more accurate. Thus the posted comments about the previous patch do not apply to this patch - the change being commented on is no longer being made.

And please don't just "v2: rebase", but please add some indicators against
what it conflicted if it's obvious.

Thanks, Daniel
