drm/i915: Priority boost for waiting clients
Latency is in the eye of the beholder. In the case where a client stops and waits for the gpu, give that request chain a small priority boost (not so that it overtakes higher priority clients, to preserve the external ordering) so that ideally the wait completes earlier. v2: Tvrtko recommends to keep the boost-from-user-stall as small as possible and to allow new client flows to be preferred for interactivity over stalls.
