drm/i915: Convert the forcewake worker into a timer func
We don't want to suffer scheduling delay when turning off the GPU after waking it up to touch registers. Ideally, we only want to keep the GPU awake for the register access sequence, with a single forcewake dance on the first access and release immediately after the last. We set a timer on the first access so that we only dance once and on the next scheduler tick, we drop the forcewake again. This moves the cleanup routine from the common i915 workqueue to a timer func so that we don't anger powertop, and drop the forcewake again quicker. v2: Enable the deferred force_wake_put for regular register reads as well. v3: Beautification and make sure we disable forcewake when shutting down.
