drm/i915: Push i915_sw_fence_wait into the nonblocking atomic commit
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Blocking in a worker is ok, that's what the unbound_wq is for. And it
unifies the paths between the blocking and nonblocking commit, giving
me just one path where I have to implement the deadlock avoidance
trickery in the next patch.

I first tried to implement the following patch without this rework, but
force-completing i915_sw_fence creates some serious challenges around
properly cleaning things up. So wasn't a feasible short-term approach.
Another approach would be to simple keep track of all pending atomic
commit work items and manually queue them from the reset code. With the
caveat that double-queue in case we race with the i915_sw_fence must be
avoided. Given all that, taking the cost of a double schedule in atomic
for the short-term fix is the best approach, but can be changed in the future of course.

v2: Amend commit message (Chris).

v3: Add comment explaining why we do nothing in the sw_fence complete
callback (Michel).
