[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 28/28] drm/i915: Replace the priority boosting for the display with a deadline

[Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk>]

For a modeset/pageflip, there is a very precise deadline by which the
frame must be completed in order to hit the vblank and be shown. While
we don't pass along that exact information, we can at least inform the
scheduler that this request-chain needs to be completed asap.
