Subject: [PATCH 5.5 220/257] drm/i915/gt: Treat idling as a RPS downclock event

From: Chris Wilson <chris@...is-wilson.co.uk>

commit 98479ada421a8fd2123b98efd398a6f1379307ab upstream.

If we park/unpark faster than we can respond to RPS events, we never
will process a downclock event after expiring a waitboost, and thus we
will forever restart the GPU at max clocks even if the workload switches
and doesn't justify full power.

Closes: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/issues/1500
Fixes: 3e7abf814193 ("drm/i915: Extract GT render power state management")
