drm/i915: Differentiate between aliasing-ppgtt and ggtt pinning

Userptr causes lockdep to complain when we are using the aliasing-ppgtt
(and ggtt, but for that it is rightfully so to complain about) in that
when we revoke the userptr we take a mutex which we also use to revoke
the mmaps. However, we only revoke mmaps for GGTT bindings and we never
allow userptr to create a GGTT binding so the warning should be false
and is simply caused by our conflation of the aliasing-ppgtt with the
ggtt. So lets try treating the binding into the aliasing-ppgtt as a
separate lockclass from the ggtt. The downside is that we are
deliberately suppressing lockdep;s ability to warn us of cycles.

* inversions when we have to evict them the mmu_notifier callbacks -
* but they are allowed to be part of the user ppGTT which can never
* be mapped. As such we try to give the distinct users of the same
* mutex, distinct lockclasses [equivalent to how we keep i915_ggtt
* and i915_ppgtt separate].
*
* NB this may cause us to mask real lock inversions -- while the
* code is safe today, lockdep may not be able to spot future
* transgressions.
