drm/i915: Perform object clflushing asynchronously
Flushing the cachelines for an object is slow, can be as much as 100ms
for a large framebuffer. We currently do this under the struct_mutex BKL
on execution or on pageflip. But now with the ability to add fences to
obj->resv for both flips and execbuf (and we naturally wait on the fence
before CPU access), we can move the clflush operation to a workqueue and
signal a fence for completion, thereby doing the work asynchronously and
not blocking the driver or its clients.
v2: Introduce i915_gem_clflush.h and use a new name, split out some
extras into separate patches.
