[RFC PATCH 0/2] drm/amdgpu: Reduce the notifier_lock contention

["Thomas Hellström" <thomas.hellstrom@linux.intel.com>]

In the interest of sharing as much of possible of the userptr design,
two rfc patches that are aiming to reduce the userptr notifier_lock
contention.

We have these changes already in i915, but we wanted to lift them to dri-
devel in the amdgpu context for discussion to make sure we don't miss
anything important.

The first patch addresses the case where idling a single userptr bo
for even a simple invalidation, stalls command submission across the device.
Since the notifier callback is guaranteed to run to *completion* by the
notifier code without a racing successful command submission, moving the
fence wait out of the notifier lock should be safe.

The second patch probably has a smaller impact and might avoid some
contention particularly if traversing long userptr lists. The notifier sem
is also locked interruptible during command submission.

Any comments appreciated.
