drm/i915/frontbuffer: Fix intel_frontbuffer lifetime handling
The current attempted split between xe/i915 vs. display for intel_frontbuffer is a mess: - the i915 rcu leaks through the interface to the display side - the obj->frontbuffer write-side is now protected by a display specific spinlock even though the actual obj->framebuffer pointer lives in a i915 specific structure - the kref is getting poked directly from both sides - i915_active is still on the display side Clean up the mess by moving everything about the frontbuffer lifetime management to the i915/xe side: - the rcu usage is now completely contained in i915 - frontbuffer_lock is moved into i915 - kref is on the i915/xe side (xe needs the refcount as well due to intel_frontbuffer_queue_flush()->intel_frontbuffer_ref()) - the bo (and its refcounting) is no longer on the display side - i915_active is contained in i915 I was pondering whether we could do this in some kind of smaller steps, and perhaps we could, but it would probably have to start with a bunch of reverts (which for sure won't go cleanly anymore). So not convinced it's worth the hassle. Acked-by:Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com> Signed-off-by:
