Subject: [PATCH 1/5] i915: avoid kernel hang caused by synchronize rcu struct_mutex deadlock
synchronize_rcu/synchronize_sched/synchronize_rcu_expedited() will
hang until its own workqueues are run. The i915 gem workqueues will
wait on the struct_mutex to be released. So we cannot wait for a
quiescent state using those rcu primitives while holding the
struct_mutex or it creates a circular lock dependency resulting in
kernel hangs (which is reproducible but goes undetected by lockdep).
This started in commit 3d3d18f086cdda72ee18a454db70ca72c6e3246c and
lockdep didn't detect it apparently.
