drm/i915/gt: Only swap to a random sibling once upon creation

The danger in switching at random upon intel_context_pin is that the
context may still actually be inflight, as it will not be scheduled out
until a context switch after it is complete -- that may be a long time
after we do a final intel_context_unpin.

drm/i915/gt: Ignore irq enabling on the virtual engines

We do not use the virtual engines for interrupts (they have physical
components), but we do use them to decouple the fence signaling during
submission. Currently, when we submit a completed request, we try to
enable the interrupt handler for the virtual engine, but we never disarm
it. A quick fix is then to mark the irq as enabled, and it will then
remain enabled -- and this prevents us from waking the device and never
letting it sleep again.

drm/i915/gt: Always reset the engine, even if inactive, on execlists failure

If something has gone awry with the CSB processing, we need to pause,
unwind and restart the request submission and event processing. However,
currently we skip the engine reset if we raise an error but discover no
active context, in the mistaken belief that it was merely a glitch in
the matrix. The glitches are real enough, and we do need to unwind even
if the engine appears idle (as it has gone permanently idle!) The
simplest way to unwind and recover is simply do the engine reset, which
should be very fast and _safe_ as nothing is active.

drm/i915/gt: Be defensive in the face of false CS events

If the HW throws a curve ball and reports either en event before it is
possible, or just a completely impossible event, we have to grin and
bear it. The first few events, we will likely not notice as we would be
expecting some event, but as soon as we stop expecting an event and yet
they still keep coming, then we enter into undefined state territory.
In which case, bail out, stop processing the events, and reset the
engine and our set of queued requests to recover.

The sporadic hangs and warnings will continue to plague CI, but at least
system stability should not be compromised.

drm/i915/gt: Incrementally check for rewinding

In commit 5ba32c7be81e ("drm/i915/execlists: Always force a context
reload when rewinding RING_TAIL"), we placed the check for rewinding a
context on actually submitting the next request in that context. This
was so that we only had to check once, and could do so with precision
avoiding as many forced restores as possible. For example, to ensure
that we can resubmit the same request a couple of times, we include a
small wa_tail such that on the next submission, the ring->tail will
appear to move forwards when resubmitting the same request. This is very
common as it will happen for every lite-restore to fill the second port
after a context switch.

However, intel_ring_direction() is limited in precision to movements of
upto half the ring size. The consequence being that if we tried to
unwind many requests, we could exceed half the ring and flip the sense
of the direction, so missing a force restore. As no request can be
greater than half the ring (i.e. 2048 bytes in the smallest case), we
can check for rollback incrementally. As we check against the tail that
would be submitted, we do not lose any sensitivity and allow lite
restores for the simple case. We still need to double check upon
submitting the context, to allow for multiple preemptions and
resubmissions.

drm/i915/gt: Transfer old virtual breadcrumbs to irq_worker

The second try at staging the transfer of the breadcrumb. In part one,
we realised we could not simply move to the second engine as we were
only holding the breadcrumb lock on the first. So in commit 6c81e21a4742
("drm/i915/gt: Stage the transfer of the virtual breadcrumb"), we
removed it from the first engine and marked up this request to reattach
the signaling on the new engine. However, this failed to take into
account that we only attach the breadcrumb if the new request is added
at the start of the queue, which if we are transferring, it is because
we know there to be a request to be signaled (and hence we would not be
attached).

In this attempt, we try to transfer the completed requests to the
irq_worker on its rq->engine->breadcrumbs. This preserves the coupling
between the rq and its breadcrumbs, so that
i915_request_cancel_breadcrumb() does not attempt to manipulate the list
under the wrong lock.

v2: Code sharing is fun.
