Add the first version of the VM_BIND locking document which is
intended to be part of the xe driver upstreaming agreement.

The document describes and discuss the locking used during exec-
functions, evicton and for userptr gpu-vmas. Intention is to be
using the
same nomenclature as the drm-vm-bind-async.rst.


Thanks for reviewing. I'll update the document accordingly except for
the s/an rwsem/a rwsem/g, I think it's "an rwsem" similarly to "an r".

I read it as "read-write-sem". Would you read it as "ar-double-u-sem"
then I guess?
