We use timeline->mutex to protect modifications to
context->active_count, and the associated enable/disable callbacks.
Due to complications with engine-pm barrier there is a path where we used
a "superlock" to provide serialised protect and so could not
unconditionally assert with lockdep that it was always held. However,
we can mark the mutex as taken (noting that we may be nested underneath
ourselves) which means we can be reassured the right timeline->mutex is
always treated as held and let lockdep roam free.

In preparation for removing struct_mutex from around context retirement,
we need to make timeline pinning and unpinning safe. Since multiple
engines/contexts can share a single timeline, we cannot rely on
borrowing the context mutex (otherwise we could state that the timeline
is only pinned/unpinned inside the context pin/unpin and so guarded by
it). However, we only perform a sequence of atomic operations inside the
timeline pin/unpin and the sequence of those operations is safe for a
concurrent unpin / pin, so we can relax the struct_mutex requirement.

i915_gem_wait_for_idle() and i915_retire_requests() introduce a
dependency on the timeline->mutex. This is problematic as we want to
later perform allocations underneath i915_active.mutex, forming a link
between the shrinker, the timeline and active mutexes. Nip this cycle in
the bud by removing the acquisition of the timeline mutex (i.e.
retiring) from inside the shrinker.
