drm/i915: Refine VT-d scanout workaround
VT-d may cause overfetch of the scanout PTE, both before and after the vma (depending on the scanout orientation). bspec recommends that we provide a tile-row in either directions, and suggests using 168 PTE, warning that the accesses will wrap around the ends of the GGTT. Currently, we fill the entire GGTT with scratch pages when using VT-d to always ensure there are valid entries around every vma, including scanout. However, writing every PTE is slow as on recent devices we perform 8MiB of uncached writes, incurring an extra 100ms during resume. If instead we focus on only putting guard pages around scanout, we can avoid touching the whole GGTT. To avoid having to introduce extra nodes around each scanout vma, we adjust the scanout drm_mm_node to be smaller than the allocated space, and fixup the extra PTE during dma binding.
