Rather than manually add every new global into each hook, use
i915_global_register() function and keep a list of registered globals to
invoke instead.
However, I haven't found a way for random drivers to add an .init table
to avoid having to manually add ourselves to i915_globals_init() each
time.

As kmem_caches share the same properties (size, allocation/free behaviour)
for all potential devices, we can use global caches. While this
potential has worse fragmentation behaviour (one can argue that
different devices would have different activity lifetimes, but you can
also argue that activity is temporal across the system) it is the
default behaviour of the system at large to amalgamate matching caches.
The benefit for us is much reduced pointer dancing along the frequent
allocation paths.
v2: Defer shrinking until after a global grace period for futureproofing
multiple consumers of the slab caches, similar to the current strategy
for avoiding shrinking too early.

If we allocate while iterating the rbtree of active nodes, we may hit
the shrinker and so retire the i915_active, reaping the rbtree. Modifying
the rbtree as we iterate is not good behaviour, so acquire the
i915_active first to keep the tree intact whenever we allocate.

Looking forward, we need to break the struct_mutex dependency on
i915_gem_active. In the meantime, external use of i915_gem_active is
quite beguiling, little do new users suspect that it implies a barrier
as each request it tracks must be ordered wrt the previous one. As one
of many, it can be used to track activity across multiple timelines, a
shared fence, which fits our unordered request submission much better. We
need to steer external users away from the singular, exclusive fence
imposed by i915_gem_active to i915_active instead. As part of that
process, we move i915_gem_active out of i915_request.c into
i915_active.c to start separating the two concepts, and rename it to
i915_active_request (both to tie it to the concept of tracking just one
request, and to give it a longer, less appealing name).

Wrap the active tracking for a GPU references in a slabcache for faster
allocations, and hopefully better fragmentation reduction.
v3: Nothing device specific left, it's just a slabcache that we can
make global.
v4: Include i915_active.h and don't put the initfunc under DEBUG_GEM

As soon as we detect that the active tracker is idle and we prepare to
call the retire callback, release the storage for our tree of
per-timeline nodes. We expect these to be infrequently used and quick
to allocate, so there is little benefit in keeping the tree cached and
we would prefer to return the pages back to the system in a timely
fashion.
This also means that when we finalize the struct as a whole, we know as
the activity tracker must be idle, the tree has already been released.
Indeed we can reduce i915_active_fini() just to the assertions that there
is nothing to do.

We currently track GPU memory usage inside VMA, such that we never
release memory used by the GPU until after it has finished accessing it.
However, we may want to track other resources aside from VMA, or we may
want to split a VMA into multiple independent regions and track each
separately. For this purpose, generalise our request tracking (akin to
struct reservation_object) so that we can embed it into other objects.
v2: Tweak error handling during selftest setup.
