What about this?

drm/i915: Pass trylock context to callers

We are moving away from short term pinning, and need a way to evict objects locked by the current context. Pass the ww context to all eviction functions, so that they can evict objects that are already locked by the current ww context.

On top of that, this slightly improves ww handling because the locked objects are marked as locked by the correct ww.
