Subject: [RFC 06/21] drm/sched: Free all finished jobs at once

To implement fair scheduling we will need as accurate as possible view
into per entity GPU time utilisation. Because sched fence execution time
are only adjusted for accuracy in the free worker we need to process
completed jobs as soon as possible so the metric is most up to date when
view from the submission side of things.
