drm/i915/gt: Stage the transfer of the virtual breadcrumb
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
We move the virtual breadcrumb from one physical engine to the next, if
the next virtual request is scheduled on a new physical engine. Since
the virtual context can only be in one signal queue, we need it to track
the current physical engine for the new breadcrumbs. However, to move
the list we need both breadcrumb locks -- and since we cannot take both
at the same time (unless we are careful and always ensure consistent
ordering) stage the movement of the signaler via the current virtual
request.
