The handling of the no-preemption priority level imposes the restriction
that we need to maintain the implied ordering even though preemption is
disabled. Otherwise we may end up with an AB-BA deadlock across multiple
engine due to a real preemption event reordering the no-preemption
WAITs. To resolve this issue we currently promote all requests to WAIT
on unsubmission, however this interferes with the timeslicing
requirement that we do not apply any implicit promotion that will defeat
the round-robin timeslice list. (If we automatically promote the active
request it will go back to the head of the queue and not the tail!)
So we need implicit promotion to prevent reordering around semaphores
where we are not allowed to preempt, and we must avoid implicit
promotion on unsubmission. So instead of at unsubmit, if we apply that
implicit promotion on adding the dependency, we avoid the semaphore
deadlock and we also reduce the gains made by the promotion for user
space waiting. Furthermore, by keeping the earlier dependencies at a
higher level, we reduce the search space for timeslicing without
altering runtime scheduling too badly (no dependencies at all will be
assigned a higher priority for rrul).
v2: Limit the bump to external edges (as originally intended) i.e.
between contexts and out to the user.
