9d34e5db07 drm/i915: Enable irq to trace batch buffer completion.
If we trigger a tracepoint for batch buffer submission, it is a reasonable
assumption that we wish to also trace the batch buffer completion. So in
order to capture the completion events, we need to enable irqs... However,
we cannot rely on the completion event to disable the irq later, so we
defer the irq disable to the retire request.

1c5d22f76d drm/i915: Add tracepoints
By adding tracepoint equivalents for WATCH_BUF/EXEC we are able to monitor
the lifetimes of objects, requests and significant events. These events can
then be probed using the tracing frameworks, such as systemtap and, in
particular, perf.

For example to record the stack trace for every GPU stall during a run, use

  $ perf record -e i915:i915_gem_request_wait_begin -c 1 -g

And

  $ perf report

to view the results.

[Updated to fix compilation issues caused.]
