Recent patches to the DRM scheduler [1][2] allow for a variable number of run-queues and add support for (shared) workqueues rather than dedicated kthreads per scheduler. This allows us to create a 1:1 relationship between a GPU scheduler and a scheduler entity, in order to properly support firmware schedulers being able to handle an arbitrary amount of dynamically allocated command ring buffers. This perfectly matches Nouveau's needs, hence make use of it. Topology wise we create one scheduler instance per client (handling VM_BIND jobs) and one scheduler instance per channel (handling EXEC jobs). All channel scheduler instances share a workqueue, but every client scheduler instance has a dedicated workqueue. The latter is required to ensure that for VM_BIND job's free_job() work and run_job() work can always run concurrently and hence, free_job() work can never stall run_job() work. For EXEC jobs we don't have this requirement, since EXEC job's free_job() does not require to take any locks which indirectly or directly are held for allocations elsewhere.
