[PATCH] drm/i915: Fix lock order reversal in GTT pwrite path.

[Eric Anholt]

Since the pagefault path determines that the lock order we use has to be
mmap_sem -> struct_mutex, we can't allow page faults to occur while the
struct_mutex is held.  To fix this in pwrite, we first try optimistically to
see if we can copy from user without faulting.  If it fails, fall back to
allocating memory, copying, then taking the lock and copying it to the GPU.

Thanks to Linus for suggesting this (in retrospect) obvious way of doing it.
