Weinan Li 4cc74389a5 drm/i915/gvt: remove scheduler_mutex in per-engine workload_thread
For the vGPU workloads, now GVT-g use per vGPU scheduler, the per-ring
work_thread only pick workload belongs to the current vGPU. And with time
slice based scheduler, it waits all the engines become idle before do vGPU
switch. So we can run free dispatch in per-ring work_thread, different ring
running in different 'vGPU' won't happen.

For the workloads between vGPU and Host, this scheduler_mutex can't block
host to dispatch workload into other ring engines.

Here remove this mutex since it impacts the performance when applications
use more than 1 ring engines in 1 vgpu.

ring0 running in vGPU1, ring1 running in Host. Will happen.
ring0 running in vGPU1, ring1 running in vGPU2. Won't happen.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
