For use cases such as the DRM scheduler submitting work to the GPU on
behalf of low latency userspace applications, where latter have sufficient
privileges to have had successfully obtained realtime Vulkan global
priority, competing with random background CPU load can create large
latency spikes which gets in the way of a smooth user experience.
For these situations the existing WQ_HIGHPRI does not bring a noticeable
improvement and a stronger hint is needed.
Lets add WQ_RTPRI which creates workers with a SCHED_FIFO scheduling class
to improve this.
We use a minimum priority level since we only care about winning the
contest against normal background CPU load. We also limit the number of
instantiated threads, both per workqueue to a maximum of two, or one on a
dual processor machine, and system-wide to one less than the number of
CPUs. The idea of that is to prevent system wide starvation caused by
potentially misbehaving work items.

v2:
* Limit WQ_RTPRI to unbound workqueues and make it have strict CPU
affinitity. (Tejun)
* Fixed commit message typos. (AI)
* Fixed sysfs handling, max_active setting and user modified nice
application. (AI)

Split the single workqueue shared between the driver internal logic and
DRM scheduler use into separate ones, where the DRM scheduler one is
created per GPU priority level using the appropriate mapping to
workqueue priorities.
Low and medium GPU priority are served by a normal workqueue,
high is server by a WQ_HIGHPRI instance, while realtime GPU priority is
using the newly added WQ_RTPRI flag for lowest possible latency.
These workqueues are device global and for all three we set the maximum
concurrency to two in order to keep the GPU optimally fed with work.
