In order to simplify the lockdep annotation, as they become more complex
in the future with deferred execution and multiple paths through the
same functions, create a separate lockclass for the user timeline and
the hardware execution timeline.
We should only ever be locking the user timeline and the execution
timeline in parallel so we only need to create two lock classes, rather
than a separate class for every timeline.
v2: Rename the lock classes to be more consistent with other lockdep.

With the infrastructure converted over to tracking multiple timelines in
the GEM API whilst preserving the efficiency of using a single execution
timeline internally, we can now assign a separate timeline to every
context with full-ppgtt.
v2: Add a comment to indicate the xfer between timelines upon submission.

A restriction on our global seqno is that they cannot wrap, and that we
cannot use the value 0. This allows us to detect when a request has not
yet been submitted, its global seqno is still 0, and ensures that
hardware semaphores are monotonic as required by older hardware. To
meet these restrictions when we defer the assignment of the global
seqno, we must check that we have an available slot in the global seqno
space during request construction. If that test fails, we wait for all
requests to be completed and reset the hardware back to 0.

Currently we try to reduce the number of synchronisations (now the
number of requests we need to wait upon) by noting that if we have
earlier waited upon a request, all subsequent requests in the timeline
will be after the wait. This only applies to requests in this timeline,
as other timelines will not be ordered by that waiter.

Our timelines are more than just a seqno. They also provide an ordered
list of requests to be executed. Due to the restriction of handling
individual address spaces, we are limited to a timeline per address
space but we use a fence context per engine within.
Our first step to introducing independent timelines per context (i.e. to
allow each context to have a queue of requests to execute that have a
defined set of dependencies on other requests) is to provide a timeline
abstraction for the global execution queue.
