Matthew Auld 801fa7a81f drm/i915: improve the catch-all evict to handle lock contention
The catch-all evict can fail due to object lock contention, since it
only goes as far as trylocking the object, due to us already holding the
vm->mutex. Doing a full object lock here can deadlock, since the
vm->mutex is always our inner lock. Add another execbuf pass which drops
the vm->mutex and then tries to grab the object will the full lock,
before then retrying the eviction. This should be good enough for now to
fix the immediate regression with userspace seeing -ENOSPC from execbuf
due to contended object locks during GTT eviction.

v2 (Mani)
  - Also revamp the docs for the different passes.

Testcase: igt@gem_ppgtt@shrink-vs-evict-*

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
