[PATCH] drm/i915: Remove misinformation about mark_busy/mark_idle

[Chris Wilson]

Nowadays these are solely for managing the GT wakelock. Don't confuse
the reader by referring to how they used to work, nor suggest they are
deprecated simply because they are no longer relevant for frontbuffer
tracking.
