drm/i915/gem: Extract transient execbuf flags from i915_vma
For our convenience, and to avoid frequent allocations, we placed some lists we use for execbuf inside the common i915_vma struct. As we look to parallelise execbuf, such fields guarded by the struct_mutex BKL must be pulled under local control. Instead of using the i915_vma as our primary means of tracking the user's list of objects and their virtual mappings, we use a local eb_vma with the same lists as before (just now local not global). This should allow us to only perform the lookup of vma used for execution once during the execbuf ioctl, as currently we need to remove our secrets from inside i915_vma everytime we drop the struct_mutex as another execbuf may use the shared locations. Once potential user visible consequence is that we can remove the requirement that the execobj[] be unique, and only require that they do not conflict (i.e. you cannot softpin the same object into two locations.
