As only the display codes tries to pin its preallocated framebuffer into
an exact location in the GGTT, remove the convenience function and make
the pin management explicit in the display code. Then throughout the
display management, we track the framebuffer and its plane->vma; with
less single purpose code and ready for first class i915_vma.
In doing so, this should fix the BUG_ON(vma->pages) on fi-kbl-soraka.

Replace the struct_mutex requirement for pinning the i915_vma with the
local vm->mutex instead. Note that the vm->mutex is tainted by the
shrinker (we require unbinding from inside fs-reclaim) and so we cannot
allocate while holding that mutex. Instead we have to preallocate
workers to do allocate and apply the PTE updates after we have we
reserved their slot in the drm_mm (using fences to order the PTE writes
with the GPU work and with later unbind).
In adding the asynchronous vma binding, one subtle requirement is to
avoid coupling the binding fence into the backing object->resv. That is
the asynchronous binding only applies to the vma timeline itself and not
to the pages as that is a more global timeline (the binding of one vma
does not need to be ordered with another vma, nor does the implicit GEM
fencing depend on a vma, only on writes to the backing store). Keeping
the vma binding distinct from the backing store timelines is verified by
a number of async gem_exec_fence and gem_exec_schedule tests. The way we
do this is quite simple, we keep the fence for the vma binding separate
and only wait on it as required, and never add it to the obj->resv
itself.
Another consequence in reducing the locking around the vma is the
destruction of the vma is no longer globally serialised by struct_mutex.
A natural solution would be to add a kref to i915_vma, but that requires
decoupling the reference cycles, possibly by introducing a new
i915_mm_pages object that is own by both obj->mm and vma->pages.
However, we have not taken that route due to the overshadowing lmem/ttm
discussions, and instead play a series of complicated games with
trylocks to (hopefully) ensure that only one destruction path is called!
v2: Add some commentary, and some helpers to reduce patch churn.

It used to be handy that we only had a couple of headers, but over time
i915_drv.h has become unwieldy. Extract declarations to a separate
header file corresponding to the implementation module, clarifying the
modularity of the driver.
Ensure the new header is self-contained, and do so with minimal further
includes, using forward declarations as needed. Include the new header
from i915_drv.h to avoid sprinkling includes all over the place; this
can be changed as a follow-up if necessary.
No functional changes.

Since reservation_object_fini() does an immediate free, rather than
kfree_rcu as normal, we have to delay the release until after the RCU
grace period has elapsed (i.e. from the rcu cleanup callback) so that we
can rely on the RCU protected access to the fences while the object is a
zombie.
i915_gem_busy_ioctl relies on having an RCU barrier to protect the
reservation in order to avoid having to take a reference and strong
memory barriers.
v2: Order is important; only release after putting the pages!

Currently, we try to report to the shrinker the precise number of
objects (pages) that are available to be reaped at this moment. This
requires searching all objects with allocated pages to see if they
fulfill the search criteria, and this count is performed quite
frequently. (The shrinker tries to free ~128 pages on each invocation,
before which we count all the objects; counting takes longer than
unbinding the objects!) If we take the pragmatic view that with
sufficient desire, all objects are eventually reapable (they become
inactive, or no longer used as framebuffer etc), we can simply return
the count of pinned pages maintained during get_pages/put_pages rather
than walk the lists every time.
The downside is that we may (slightly) over-report the number of
objects/pages we could shrink and so penalize ourselves by shrinking
more than required. This is mitigated by keeping the order in which we
shrink objects such that we avoid penalizing active and frequently used
objects, and if memory is so tight that we need to free them we would
need to anyway.
v2: Only expose shrinkable objects to the shrinker; a small reduction in
not considering stolen and foreign objects.
v3: Restore the tracking from a "backup" copy from before the gem/ split
