Freeing a request triggers the destruction of the context. This needs to
occur after all objects are themselves unbound from the context, and so
the free request needs to occur after the object release during retire.

This tidies up

    drm/i915: Defer request freeing

by simply swapping the order of operations rather than introducing
further complexity - as noted during review.

I had a reason for not doing this originally - but I can no longer
reconstruct what it was. Looking at it again now, it seems the only
difference is with setting ring->last_retired_head, with your patch that
gets set after the object is on the inactive list. Nothing seems wrong
with that, to me.

So with the caveat that I thought this was a bad idea at one point in
time:
