drm/i915: Drive request submission through fence callbacks
Drive final request submission from a callback from the fence. This way the request is queued until all dependencies are resolved, at which point it is handed to the backend for queueing to hardware. At this point, no dependencies are set on the request, so the callback is immediate. A side-effect of imposing a heavier-irqsafe spinlock for execlist submission is that we lose the softirq enabling after scheduling the execlists tasklet. To compensate, we manually kickstart the softirq by disabling and enabling the bh around the fence signaling.
