Enabling PPGTT and also the need to track which context was guilty of
gpu hang (arb robustness enabling) have put pressure for struct i915_hw_context
to be more than just a placeholder for hw context state.
In order to track object lifetime properly in a multi peer usage, add reference
counting for i915_hw_context.
v2: track i915_hw_context pointers instead of using ctx_ids
(from Chris Wilson)
v3 (Ben): Get rid of do_release() and handle refcounting more compactly.
(recommended by Chis)
v4: kref_* put inside static inlines (Daniel Vetter)
remove code duplication on freeing context (Chris Wilson)
v5: idr_remove and ctx->file_priv = NULL in destroy ioctl (Chris)
This actually will cause a problem if one destroys a context and later
refers to the idea of the context (multiple contexts may have the same
id, but only 1 will exist in the idr).
v6: Strip out the request related stuff. Reworded commit message.
Got rid of do_destroy and introduced i915_gem_context_release_handle,
suggested by Chris Wilson.
v7: idr_remove can't be called inside idr_for_each (Chris Wilson)

************************************************************
The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).
The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:
1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.
2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
restricted regions of memory.
3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
switch.
4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
Documentation on the DRI is available from:
