drm/i915: Add i915_gem_object_create_from_data()

i915_gem_object_create_from_data() is a generic function to save data
from a plain linear buffer in a new pageable gem object that can later
be accessed by the CPU and/or GPU.

We will need this for the microcontroller firmware loading support code.

Derived from i915_gem_object_write(), originally by Alex Dai

v2:
    Change of function: now allocates & fills a new object, rather than
        writing to an existing object
    New name courtesy of Chris Wilson
    Explicit domain-setting and other improvements per review comments
        by Chris Wilson & Daniel Vetter

v4:
    Rebased
