drm/i915: Flush buffer pools on driver remove
We currently do an explicit flush of the buffer pools within the call path of drm_driver.release(); this removes all buffers, regardless of their age, freeing the buffers' associated resources (objects, address space areas). However there is other code that runs within the drm_driver.release() call chain that expects objects and their associated address space areas have already been flushed. Since buffer pools auto-flush old buffers once per second in a worker thread, there's a small window where if we remove the driver while there are still objects in buffers with an age of less than one second, the assumptions of the other release code may be violated. By moving the flush to driver remove (which executes earlier via the pci_driver.remove() flow) we're ensuring that all buffers are flushed and their associated objects freed before some other code in pci_driver.remove() flushes those objects so they are released before _any_ code in drm_driver.release() that check completness of those flushes executes. v2: Reword commit description as suggested by Matt.
