If we attempt to wake up a waiter, who is currently checking the seqno
it will be in the TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE state and ttwu will report success.
However, it is actually awake and functioning -- so delay reporting the
actual wake up until it sleeps. This fixes some spurious claims of
missed_breadcrumbs when running under heavy load; i.e. sufficient load to
preempt away the newly woken waiter before they complete their checks.
However, it does so at the cost of a rare false negative; where the
waiter changes between the check and ttwu -- the only way to fix that
would be to extend the reporting from ttwu where the check could be done
atomically.

The intent here was that we would be listening to
i915_gem_request_unsubmit in order to cancel the signaler quickly and
release the reference on the request. Cancelling the signaler is done
directly via intel_engine_cancel_signaling (called from unsubmit), but
that does not directly wake up the signaling thread, and neither does
setting the request->global_seqno back to zero wake up listeners to the
request->execute waitqueue. So the only time that listening to the
request->execute waitqueue would wake up the signaling kthread would be
on the request resubmission, during which time we would already receive
wake ups from rejoining the global breadcrumbs wait rbtree.
Trying to wake up to release the request remains an issue. If the
signaling was cancelled and no other request required signaling, then it
is possible for us to shutdown with the reference on the request still
held. To ensure that we do not try to shutdown, leaking that request, we
kick the signaling threads whenever we disarm the breadcrumbs, i.e. on
parking the engine when idle.
v2: We do need to be sure to release the last reference on stopping the
kthread; asserting that it has been dropped already is insufficient.

When we call intel_engine_cancel_signaling() to stop reporting when
a request is completed via an asynchronous signal, we remove that request
from the breadcrumb wait queue. However, we may be concurrently
processing that request in the signaler itself, the actual operations on
the request's node itself are serialised but we do not actually clear the
waiter after removing it from the tree allowing both parties to attempt
to do so and corrupting the rbtree. (Previously removing from the
breadcrumb wait queue could only be done on behalf of i915_wait_request,
so this race could not happen).

The execlists emulation on top of the GuC (used for scheduling and
preemption) depends on the MI_USER_INTERRUPT for its notifications and
tasklet action. As we always employ the irq, there is no advantage in
ever disabling it while we are using the GuC, so allow us to arm the
breadcrumb irq when enabling GuC submission and disarm upon disabling.
The impact should be lessened by the delayed irq disabling we do (we
only disable after receiving an interrupt for which no one was wanting),
but allowing guc to explicitly manage the irq in relation to itself is
simpler and prevents an issue with losing an interrupt for preemption
as it is not coupled to an active request.
Internally, we add a reference counter (breadcrumbs.irq_enabled) as a
simple mechanism to allow GuC to keep the breadcrumb irq enabled. To
improve upon always enabling the irq while guc is selected, we need
to hook into the parking facility of intel_engines so that we only enable
the breadcrumbs while the GT is active (one step better would be to
individually park/unpark each engine).
In effect, this means that we keep the breadcrumb irq always enabled for
the entire duration the guc is busy, whereas before we would try to
switch it off whenever we idled for more than interrupt with no
associated waiters. The difference *should* be negligible in practice!
v2: Stop abusing fence signaling (and its auxiliary data structures) to
enable the breadcrumbs irqs.

If the engine is continually completing nops, we can saturate the
signaler and keep it working indefinitely. This angers the NMI watchdog!
A good example is to disable semaphores on snb and run igt/gem_exec_nop -
the parallel, multi-engine workloads are more than sufficient to hog the
CPU, preventing the system from even processing ICMP echo replies.
v2: Tvrtko dug into cond_resched() on x86 and found that it only
depended upon preempt_count and not tif_need_resched() - which means
that we would always call schedule() at that point.

A significant cost in setting up a wait is the overhead of enabling the
interrupt. As we disable the interrupt whenever the queue of waiters is
empty, if we are frequently waiting on alternating batches, we end up
re-enabling the interrupt on a frequent basis. We do want to disable the
interrupt during normal operations as under high load it may add several
thousand interrupts/s - we have been known in the past to occupy whole
cores with our interrupt handler after accidentally leaving user
interrupts enabled. As a compromise, leave the interrupt enabled until
the next IRQ, or the system is idle. This gives a small window for a
waiter to keep the interrupt active and not be delayed by having to
re-enable the interrupt.

As execlists and other non-semaphore multi-engine devices coordinate
between engines using interrupts, we can shave off a few 10s of
microsecond of scheduling latency by doing the fence signaling from the
interrupt as opposed to a RT kthread. (Realistically the delay adds
about 1% to an individual cross-engine workload.) We only signal the
first fence in order to limit the amount of work we move into the
interrupt handler. We also have to remember that our breadcrumbs may be
unordered with respect to the interrupt and so we still require the
waiter process to perform some heavyweight coherency fixups, as well as
traversing the tree of waiters.

The two users of the return value from intel_engine_wakeup() are
expecting different results. In the breadcrumbs hangcheck, we are using
it to determine whether wake_up_process() detected the waiter was
currently running (and if so we presume that it hasn't yet missed the
interrupt). However, in the fake_irq path, we are using the return value
as a check as to whether there are any waiters, and so we may
incorrectly stop the fake-irq if that waiter was currently running.
To handle the two different needs, return both bits of information! We
uninline it from the irq path in preparation for the next patch which
makes the irq hotpath special and relegates intel_engine_wakeup() to the
slow fixup paths.

A request is assigned a global seqno only when it is on the hardware
execution queue. The global seqno can be used to maintain a list of
requests on the same engine in retirement order, for example for
constructing a priority queue for waiting. Prior to its execution, or
if it is subsequently removed in the event of preemption, its global
seqno is zero. As both insertion and removal from the execution queue
may operate in IRQ context, it is not guarded by the usual struct_mutex
BKL. Instead those relying on the global seqno must be prepared for its
value to change between reads. Only when the request is complete can
the global seqno be stable (due to the memory barriers on submitting
the commands to the hardware to write the breadcrumb, if the HWS shows
that it has passed the global seqno and the global seqno is unchanged
after the read, it is indeed complete).

Replace the global device seqno with one for each engine, and account
for in-flight seqno on each separately. This is consistent with
dma-fence as each timeline has separate fence-contexts for each engine
and a seqno is only ordered within a fence-context (i.e. seqno do not
need to be ordered wrt to other engines, just ordered within a single
engine). This is required to enable request rewinding for preemption on
individual engines (we have to rewind the global seqno to avoid
overflow, and we do not have to rewind all engines just to preempt one.)
v2: Rename active_seqno to inflight_seqnos to more clearly indicate that
it is a counter and not equivalent to the existing seqno. Update
functions that operated on active_seqno similarly.

As a backup to waiting on a user-interrupt from the GPU, we use a heavy
and frequent timer to wake up the waiting process should we detect an
inconsistency whilst waiting. After seeing a "missed interrupt", the
next time we wait, we restart the heavy timer. This patch is more
reluctant to restart the timer and will only do so if we have not see any
interrupts since when we started the fake irq timer. If we are seeing
interrupts, then the waiters are being woken normally and we had an
incoherency that caused to miss last time - that is unlikely to reoccur
and so taking the risk of stalling again seems pragmatic.

interrupts are still being delivered, we can be reassured that we
