Chris Wilson b5ffc9bc38 drm/i915: Introduce i915_gem_object_finish_gtt()
Like its siblings finish_gpu(), this function clears the object from the
GTT domain forcing it to be trigger a domain invalidation should we ever
need to use via the GTT again.

Note that the most important side-effect of finishing the GTT domain
(aside from clearing the tracking read/write domains) is that it imposes
an memory barrier so that all accesses are complete before it returns,
which is important if you intend to be modifying translation tables
shortly afterwards. The second most important side-effect is that it
tears down the GTT mappings forcing a page-fault and invalidation on
next user access to the object.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.


Documentation on the DRI is available from:
    http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Documentation
