drm/i915: Bump ready tasks ahead of busywaits
Consider two tasks that are running in parallel on a pair of engines
(vcs0, vcs1), but then must complete on a shared engine (rcs0). To
maximise throughput, we want to run the first ready task on rcs0 (i.e.
the first task that completes on either of vcs0 or vcs1). When using
semaphores, however, we will instead queue onto rcs in submission order.
To resolve this incorrect ordering, we want to re-evaluate the priority
queue when each of the request is ready. Normally this happens because
we only insert into the priority queue requests that are ready, but with
semaphores we are inserting ahead of their readiness and to compensate
we penalize those tasks with reduced priority (so that tasks that do not
need to busywait should naturally be run first). However, given a series
of tasks that each use semaphores, the queue degrades into submission
fifo rather than readiness fifo, and so to counter this we give a small
boost to semaphore users as their dependent tasks are completed (and so
we no longer require any busywait prior to running the user task as they
are then ready themselves).
