Chris Wilson b7268c5eed drm/i915: Pack params to engine->schedule() into a struct
Today we only want to pass along the priority to engine->schedule(), but
in the future we want to have much more control over the various aspects
of the GPU during a context's execution, for example controlling the
frequency allowed. As we need an ever growing number of parameters for
scheduling, move those into a struct for convenience.

v2: Move the anonymous struct into its own function for legibility and
ye olde gcc.

*
* Requests exist in a complex web of interdependencies. Each request
* has to wait for some other request to complete before it is ready to be run
* (e.g. we have to wait until the pixels have been rendering into a texture
* before we can copy from it). We track the readiness of a request in terms
* of fences, but we also need to keep the dependency tree for the lifetime
* of the request (beyond the life of an individual fence). We use the tree
* at various points to reorder the requests whilst keeping the requests
* in order with respect to their various dependencies.
*
* There is no active component to the "scheduler". As we know the dependency
* DAG of each request, we are able to insert it into a sorted queue when it
* is ready, and are able to reorder its portion of the graph to accommodate
* dynamic priority changes.
