drm/i915: Limit the busy wait on requests to 5us not 10ms!

drm/i915: Limit the busy wait on requests to 5us not 10ms!

When waiting for high frequency requests, the finite amount of time
required to set up the irq and wait upon it limits the response rate. By
busywaiting on the request completion for a short while we can service
the high frequency waits as quick as possible. However, if it is a slow
request, we want to sleep as quickly as possible. The tradeoff between
waiting and sleeping is roughly the time it takes to sleep on a request,
on the order of a microsecond. Based on measurements of synchronous
workloads from across big core and little atom, I have set the limit for
busywaiting as 10 microseconds. In most of the synchronous cases, we can
reduce the limit down to as little as 2 miscroseconds, but that leaves
quite a few test cases regressing by factors of 3 and more.

The code currently uses the jiffie clock, but that is far too coarse (on
the order of 10 milliseconds) and results in poor interactivity as the
CPU ends up being hogged by slow requests. To get microsecond resolution
we need to use a high resolution timer. The cheapest of which is polling
local_clock(), but that is only valid on the same CPU. If we switch CPUs
because the task was preempted, we can also use that as an indicator that
 the system is too busy to waste cycles on spinning and we should sleep
instead.

     drm/i915: Optimistically spin for the request completion

v2: Drop full u64 for unsigned long - the timer is 32bit wraparound safe,
so we can use native register sizes on smaller architectures. Mention
the approximate microseconds units for elapsed time and add some extra
comments describing the reason for busywaiting.

v3: Raise the limit to 10us
v4: Now 5us.
