Subject: drm/i915/gem: Remove shared locking on freeing objects
From: Chris Wilson <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 2826d447fbd60e6a05e53d5f918bceb8c04e315c upstream.
The obj->base.resv may be shared across many objects, some of which may
still be live and locked, preventing objects from being freed
indefintely. We could individualise the lock during the free, or rely on
a freed object having no contention and being able to immediately free
the pages it owns.

Fixes: be7612fd6665 ("drm/i915: Require object lock when freeing pages during destruction")
Fixes: 6cb12fbda1c2 ("drm/i915: Use trylock instead of blocking lock for __i915_gem_free_objects.")
