drm/i915: Require the vm mutex for i915_vma_bind()
Protect updates of struct i915_vma flags and async binding / unbinding
with the vm::mutex. This means that i915_vma_bind() needs to assert
vm::mutex held. In order to make that possible drop the caching of
kmap_atomic() maps around i915_vma_bind().
An alternative would be to use kmap_local() but since we block cpu
unplugging during sleeps inside kmap_local() sections this may have
unwanted side-effects. Particularly since we might wait for gpu while
holding the vm mutex.
This change may theoretically increase execbuf cpu-usage on snb, but
at least on non-highmem systems that increase should be very small.
