This adds the infrastructure for an execution context for GEM buffers
which is similar to the existing TTMs execbuf util and intended to replace
it in the long term.
The basic functionality is that we abstracts the necessary loop to lock
many different GEM buffers with automated deadlock and duplicate handling.
v2: drop xarray and use dynamic resized array instead, the locking
overhead is unnecessary and measurable.
v3: drop duplicate tracking, radeon is really the only one needing that.
v4: fixes issues pointed out by Danilo, some typos in comments and a
helper for lock arrays of GEM objects.
v5: some suggestions by Boris Brezillon, especially just use one retry
macro, drop loop in prepare_array, use flags instead of bool
v6: minor changes suggested by Thomas, Boris and Danilo
v7: minor typos pointed out by checkpatch.pl fixed

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
