Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915: Close race between processing unpin task and
 queueing the flip

commit e7d841ca03b7ab668620045cd7b428eda9f41601 upstream.

Before queuing the flip but crucially after attaching the unpin-work to
the crtc, we continue to setup the unpin-work. However, should the
hardware fire early, we see the connected unpin-work and queue the task.
The task then promptly runs and unpins the fb before we finish taking
the required references or even pinning it... Havoc.

To close the race, we use the flip-pending atomic to indicate when the
flip is finally setup and enqueued. So during the flip-done processing,
we can check more accurately whether the flip was expected.

v2: Add the appropriate mb() to ensure that the writes to the page-flip
worker are complete prior to marking it active and emitting the MI_FLIP.
On the read side, the mb should be enforced by the spinlocks.

[danvet: Review the barriers a bit, we need a write barrier both
before and after updating ->pending. Similarly we need a read barrier
in the interrupt handler both before and after reading ->pending. With
well-ordered irqs only one barrier in each place should be required,
but since this patch explicitly sets out to combat spurious interrupts
with is staged activation of the unpin work we need to go full-bore on
the barriers, too. Discussed with Chris Wilson on irc and changes
acked by him.]
