drm/i915: Fix eviction when the GGTT is idle but full In the full-ppgtt world, we can fill the GGTT full of context objects. These context objects are currently implicitly tracked by the requests that pin them i.e. they are only unpinned when the request is completed and retired, but we do not have the link from the vma to the request (anymore). In order to unpin those contexts, we have to issue another request and wait upon the switch to the kernel context. The bug during eviction was that we assumed that a full GGTT meant we would have requests on the GGTT timeline, and so we missed situations where those requests where merely in flight (and when even they have not yet been submitted to hw yet). The fix employed here is to change the already-is-idle test to no look at the execution timeline, but count the outstanding requests and then check that we have switched to the kernel context. Erring on the side of overkill here just means that we stall a little longer than may be strictly required, but we only expect to hit this path in extreme corner cases where returning an erroneous error is worse than the delay. v2: Logical inversion when swapping over branches.
