Previously, we were storing the ring size in the ring pointer before it
was actually allocated. We would then guard setting the ring size on
checking for CONTEXT_ALLOC_BIT. This is error-prone at best and really
only saves us a few bytes on something that already burns at least 4K.
Instead, this patch adds a new ring_size field and makes everything use
that.
v2 (Daniel Vetter):
- Replace 512 * SZ_4K with SZ_2M
v2 (Jason Ekstrand):
- Rebase on top of page migration code

If we pipeline the PTE updates and then do the copy of those pages
within a single unpreemptible command packet, we can submit the copies
and leave them to be scheduled without having to synchronously wait
under a global lock. In order to manage migration, we need to
preallocate the page tables (and keep them pinned and available for use
at any time), causing a bottleneck for migrations as all clients must
contend on the limited resources. By inlining the ppGTT updates and
performing the blit atomically, each client only owns the PTE while in
use, and so we can reschedule individual operations however we see fit.
And most importantly, we do not need to take a global lock on the shared
vm, and wait until the operation is complete before releasing the lock
for others to claim the PTE for themselves.
