drm/i915: Trim the object sg table
At the moment we allocate enough sg table entries assuming we will not be able to do any coalescing. But since in practice we most often can, and more so very effectively, this ends up wasting a lot of memory. A simple and effective way of trimming the over-allocated entries is to copy the table over to a new one allocated to the exact size. Experiments on my freshly logged and idle desktop (KDE) showed that by doing this we can save approximately 1 MiB of RAM, or when running a typical benchmark like gl_manhattan I have even seen a 6 MiB saving. More complicated techniques such as only copying the last used page and freeing the rest are left to the reader. v2: * Update commit message. * Use temporary sg_table on stack.
