drm/i915: Prevent recursive deadlock on releasing a busy userptr
During release of the GEM object we hold the struct_mutex. As the object may be holding onto the last reference for the task->mm, calling mmput() may trigger exit_mmap() which close the vma which will call drm_gem_vm_close() and attempt to reacquire the struct_mutex. In order to avoid that recursion, we have to defer the mmput() until after we drop the struct_mutex, i.e. we need to schedule a worker to do the clean up. A further issue spotted by Tvrtko was caused when we took a GTT mmapping of a userptr buffer object. In that case, we would never call mmput as the object would be cyclically referenced by the GTT mmapping and not freed upon process exit - keeping the entire process mm alive after the process task was reaped. The fix employed is to replace the mm_users/mmput() reference handling to mm_count/mmdrop() for the shared i915_mm_struct. INFO: task test_surfaces:1632 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
