Add another perma-pinned context for using for preemption at any time. We cannot just reuse the existing kernel context, as first and foremost we need to ensure that we can preempt the kernel context itself, so require a distinct context id. Similar to the kernel context, we may want to interrupt execution and switch to the preempt context at any time, and so it needs to be permanently pinned and available. To compensate for yet another permanent allocation, we shrink the existing context and the new context by reducing their ringbuffer to the minimum. v2: Assert that we never allocate a request from the preemption context. v3: Limit perma-pin to engines that may preempt. v4: Onion cleanup for early driver death v5: Onion ordering in main driver cleanup as well.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
