Migrate the request operations out of the main body of i915_gem.c and
into their own C file for easier expansion.

v2: Move __i915_add_request() across as well

don't we lose the history in git blame when moved to a new file? is this
ok? especially for files like i915_gem.c.

Could git blame -C be the answer to this downside? If it works as advertised:

"""
       -C|<num>|
In addition to -M, detect lines moved or copied from other files that were modified in the same commit. This is useful when you reorganize your program and move code around across files. When this option is given twice, the command additionally looks for copies from other files in the commit that creates the file. When this option is given three times, the command additionally looks for copies from other files in any
           commit.
"""

I think there would be value in separating the request bits from the memory management bits. It is easier to work with smaller files, especially when they are logically organised.

So ack on this from me.

Tvrtko
