Exclude active GPU pages from the purview of the background shrinker
(kswapd), as these cause uncontrollable GPU stalls. Given that the
shrinker is rerun until the freelists are satisfied, we should have
opportunity in subsequent passes to recover the pages once idle. If the
machine does run out of memory entirely, we have the forced idling in the
oom-notifier as a means of releasing all the pages we can before an oom
is prematurely executed.
Note that this relies upon an up-front retire_requests to keep the
inactive list in shape, which was added in a previous patch, mostly as
execlist ctx pinning band-aids.

We can forgo an evict-everything here as the shrinker operation itself
will unbind any vma as required. If we explicitly idle the GPU through a
switch to the default context, we not only create a request in an
illegal context (e.g. whilst shrinking during execbuf with a request
already allocated), but switching to the default context will not free
up the memory backing the active contexts - unless in the unlikely
situation that context had already been closed (and just kept arrive by
being the current context). The saving is near zero and the danger real.
To compensate for the loss of the forced retire, add a couple of
retire-requests to i915_gem_shirnk() - this should help free up any
transitive cache from the requests.
Note that the second retire_requests is for the benefit of the
hand-rolled execlist ctx active tracking: We need to manually kick
requests to get those unpinned again. Once that's fixed we can try to
remove this again.

Often it is very useful to know why we suddenly purge vast tracts of
memory and surprisingly up until now we didn't even have a tracepoint
for when we shrink our memory.
Note that there are slab_start/end tracepoints already, but those
don't cover the internal recursion when we directly call into our
shrinker code. Hence a separate tracepoint seems justified. Also note
that we don't really need a separate tracepoint for the actual amount
of pages freed since we already have an unbind tracpoint for that.

As the shrinker_control now passes us unsigned long targets, update our
shrinker functions to match.

When looking for viable candidates to shrink, we only want objects that
are not pinned. However to do so we performed a double iteration over
the vma in the objects, first looking for the pin-count, then looking
for allocations. We can do both at once and be slightly more explicit in
our validity test.

And remove one bogus * from i915_gem_gtt.c since that's not a
kerneldoc there.
v2: Review from Chris:
- Clarify memory space to better distinguish from address space.
- Add note that shrink doesn't guarantee the freed memory and that
users must fall back to shrink_all.
- Explain how pinning ties in with eviction/shrinker.

Two code changes:
- Extract i915_gem_shrinker_init.
- Inline i915_gem_object_is_purgeable since we open-code it everywhere
else too.
This already has the benefit of pulling all the shrinker code
together, next patch adds a bit of kerneldoc.
