drm/i915/gt: Retain default context state across shrinking
As we use a shmemfs file to hold the context state, when not in use it may be swapped out, such as across suspend. Since we wrote into the shmemfs without marking the pages as dirty, the contents may be dropped instead of being written back to swap. On re-using the shmemfs file, such as creating a new context after resume, the contents of that file were likely garbage and so the new context could then hang the GPU. Simply mark the page as being written when copying into the shmemfs file, and it the new contents will be retained across swapout.
