drm/i915: Flush TLBs before releasing backing store
We need to flush TLBs before releasing backing store otherwise userspace is able to encounter stale entries if a) it is not declaring access to certain buffers and b) it races with the backing store release from a such undeclared execution already executing on the GPU in parallel. The approach taken is to mark any buffer objects which were ever bound to the GPU and to trigger a serialized TLB flush when their backing store is released. Alternatively the flushing could be done on VMA unbind, at which point we would be able to ascertain whether there is potential a parallel GPU execution (which could race), but essentially it boils down to paying the cost of TLB flushes potentially needlessly at VMA unbind time (when the backing store is not known to be going away so not needed for safety), versus potentially needlessly at backing store relase time (since we at that point cannot tell whether there is anything executing on the GPU which uses that object). Thereforce simplicity of implementation has been chosen for now with scope to benchmark and refine later as required.
