drm/i915: Separate out reset flags from the reset counter
In preparation for introducing a per-engine reset, we can first separate the mixing of the reset state from the global reset counter. The loss of atomicity in updating the reset state poses a small problem for handling the waiters. For requests, this is solved by advancing the seqno so that a waiter waking up after the reset knows the request is complete. For pending flips, we still rely on the increment of the global reset epoch (as well as the reset-in-progress flag) to signify when the hardware was reset. The advantage, now that we do not inspect the reset state during reset itself i.e. we no longer emit requests during reset, is that we can use the atomic updates of the state flags to ensure that only one reset worker is active. v2: Mika spotted that I transformed the i915_gem_wait_for_error() wakeup into a waiter wakeup.
