drm/i915: Cache kmap between relocations

When doing relocations, we have to obtain a mapping to the page
containing the target address. This is either a kmap or iomap depending
on GPU and its cache coherency. Neighbouring relocation entries are
typically within the same page and so we can cache our kmapping between
them and avoid those pesky TLB flushes.

Note that there is some sleight-of-hand in how the slow relocate works
as the reloc_entry_cache implies pagefaults disabled (as we are inside a
kmap_atomic section). However, the slow relocate code is meant to be the
fallback from the atomic fast path failing. Fortunately it works as we
already have performed the copy_from_user for the relocation array (no
more pagefaults there) and the kmap_atomic cache is enabled after we
have waited upon an active buffer (so no more sleeping in atomic).
Magic!
