drm/i915/bdw: Emission of requests with logical rings
On a previous iteration of this patch, I created an Execlists version of __i915_add_request and asbtracted it away as a vfunc. Daniel Vetter wondered then why that was needed: "with the clean split in command submission I expect every function to know wether it'll submit to an lrc (everything in intel_lrc.c) or wether it'll submit to a legacy ring (existing code), so I don't see a need for an add_request vfunc." The honest, hairy truth is that this patch is the glue keeping the whole logical ring puzzle together: - i915_add_request is used by intel_ring_idle, which in turn is used by i915_gpu_idle, which in turn is used in several places inside the eviction and gtt codes. - Also, it is used by i915_gem_check_olr, which is littered all over i915_gem.c - ... If I were to duplicate all the code that directly or indirectly uses __i915_add_request, I'll end up creating a separate driver. To show the differences between the existing legacy version and the new Execlists one, this time I have special-cased __i915_add_request instead of adding an add_request vfunc. I hope this helps to untangle this Gordian knot.
