drm/i915: Return immediately if trylock fails for direct-reclaim
Ignore trying to shrink from i915 if we fail to acquire the struct_mutex
in the shrinker while performing direct-reclaim. The trade-off being
(much) lower latency for non-i915 clients at an increased risk of being
unable to obtain a page from direct-reclaim without hitting the
oom-notifier. The proviso being that we still keep trying to hard
obtain the lock for kswapd so that we can reap under heavy memory
pressure.
v2: Taint all mutexes taken within the shrinker with the struct_mutex
subclass as an early warning system, and drop I915_SHRINK_ACTIVE from
vmap to reduce the number of dangerous paths. We also have to drop
I915_SHRINK_ACTIVE from oom-notifier to be able to make the same claim
that ACTIVE is only used from outside context, which fits in with a
longer strategy of avoiding stalls due to scanning active during
shrinking.
The danger in using the subclass struct_mutex is that we declare
ourselves more knowledgable than lockdep and deprive ourselves of
automatic coverage. Instead, we require ourselves to mark up any mutex
taken inside the shrinker in order to detect lock-inversion, and if we
miss any we are doomed to a deadlock at the worst possible moment.
