Subject: drm/i915: Flush pending GTT writes before unbinding

From: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk>

commit 2797c4a11f373b2545c2398ccb02e362ee66a142 upstream.

>From the shrinker paths, we want to relinquish the GPU and GGTT access to
the object, releasing the backing storage back to the system for
swapout. As a part of that process we would unpin the pages, marking
them for access by the CPU (for the swapout/swapin). However, if that
process was interrupted after unbind the vma, we missed a flush of the
inflight GGTT writes before we made that GTT space available again for
reuse, with the prospect that we would redirect them to another page.

The bug dates back to the introduction of multiple GGTT vma, but the
code itself dates to commit 02bef8f98d26 ("drm/i915: Unbind closed vma
for i915_gem_object_unbind()").

Fixes: 02bef8f98d26 ("drm/i915: Unbind closed vma for i915_gem_object_unbind()")
Fixes: c5ad54cf7dd8 ("drm/i915: Use partial view in mmap fault handler")
