Subject: [PATCH 1/2] drm/i915: Allow evicting to use the requested placement

In commit a78a8da51b36 ("drm/ttm: replace busy placement with flags v6"),
the old system of having a separate placement list (for placements
which should be used without eviction) and a 'busy' placement list (for
placements which should be attempted if eviction is required) was
replaced with a new one where placements could be marked 'FALLBACK' (to
be attempted if eviction is required) or 'DESIRED' (to be attempted
first, but not if eviction is required).

i915 had always included the requested placement in the list of
'busy' placements: i.e., the placement could be used either if eviction
is required or not. But when the new system was put in place, the
requested (first) placement was marked 'DESIRED', so would never be used
if eviction became necessary. While a bug in the original commit
prevented this flag from working, when this was fixed in
4a0e7b3c ("drm/i915: fix applying placement flag"), it caused long hangs
on DG2 systems with small BAR.

Don't mark the requested placement DESIRED (or FALLBACK), allowing it to
be used in both situations. This matches the old behaviour, and resolves
the hangs.

Thanks to Justin Brewer for bisecting the issue.
