now addressed, and this version also implements shmem objects for backup
rather than direct swap-cache insertions, which was used in the previuos
series. It turns out that with per-page backup / shrinking, shmem objects
appears to work just as well as direct swap-cache insertions with the
added benefit that was introduced in the previous TTM shrinker series to
avoid running out of swap entries isn't really needed.

The series earlier consisted of a LRU traversal part and the current part.
The LRU traversal part is merged, but is still mentioned in the history
below.

Patch 1 balances ttm_resource_cursor_fini() with an init function. It
makes patch 5 more straightforward.

Patch 2 could in theory be skipped but introduces a possibility to easily
add or test multiple backup backends, like the direct swap-cache
insertion or even files into fast dedicated nvme storage for for example.

Patch 3 introduces functionality in the ttm_pool code for page-by-page shrinking
and recovery. It avoids having to temporarily allocate a huge amount of
memory to be able to shrink a buffer object. It also introduces the
possibility to immediately write-back pages if needed.

Patch 4 Adds a simple error injection to the above code to help increase
test coverage.

Patch 5 Implements a macro for LRU iteration.

Patch 6 Introduces driver-facing helpers for shrinking.

Patch 6 Implements the xe bo shrinker.

Patch 7 Increases (removes) the XE_PL_TT watermark.

v2:
- Squash obsolete revision history in the patch commit messages.
- Fix a couple of review comments by Christian
- Don't store the mem_type in the TTM managers but in the
  resource cursor.
- Rename introduced TTM *back_up* function names to *backup*
- Add ttm pool recovery fault injection.
- Shrinker xe kunit test
- Various bugfixes

v3:
- Address some review comments from Matthew Brost and Christian König.
- Use the restartable LRU walk for TTM swapping and eviction.
- Provide a POC drm_exec locking implementation for exhaustive
  eviction. (Christian König).

v4:
- Remove the RFC exhaustive eviction part. While the path to exhaustive
  eviction is pretty clear and demonstrated in v3, there is still some
  drm_exec work that needs to be agreed and implemented.
- Add shrinker power management. On some hw we need to wake when shrinking.
- Fix the lru walker helper for -EALREADY errors.
- Add drm/xe: Increase the XE_PL_TT watermark.

v5:
- Update also TTM kunit tests
- Handle ghost- and zombie objects in the shrinker.
- A couple of compile- and UAF fixes reported by Kernel Build Robot and
  Dan Carpenter.

v6:
- Address review comments from Matthew Brost on the
  restartable LRU traversal path.

v7:
- Split out TTM restartable LRU traversal path and merge that.
- Adapt the review comments on that series.

v8:
- Address review comments from Matthew Brost as detailed in the
  respective patches.

v9:
- Rebase and fix compilation errors

v10:
- Use a LRU iteration macro rather than a function with a callback.
- Rebasing and cleanups
- Address some additional review comments from Matt Brost.
- Drop the shrinker selftest. It was already merged as a swapout
  self-test.

v11:
- Move more core interaction to additional TTM helpers.
- Don't back up without __GFP_FS, and don't start writeback without __GFP_IO.
- Rebase.
