Konsta Holtta 7680fd689e gpu: nvgpu: hold power ref for deterministic channels ...

To support deterministic channels even with platforms where railgating
is supported, have each deterministic-marked channel hold a power
reference during their lifetime, and skip taking power refs for jobs in
submit path for those.

Previously, railgating blocked deterministic submits in general because
of gk20a_busy()/gk20a_idle() calls in submit path possibly taking time
and more significantly because the gpu may need turning on which takes a
nondeterministic and long amount of time.

As an exception, gk20a_do_idle() can still block deterministic submits
until gk20a_do_unidle() is called. Add a rwsem to guard this. VPR resize
needs do_idle, which conflicts with deterministic channels' requirement
to keep the GPU on. This is documented in the ioctl header now.

Make NVGPU_GPU_FLAGS_SUPPORT_DETERMINISTIC_SUBMIT_NO_JOBTRACKING always
set in the gpu characteristics now that it's supported. The only thing
left now blocking NVGPU_GPU_FLAGS_SUPPORT_DETERMINISTIC_SUBMIT_FULL is
the sync framework.

Make the channel debug dump show which channels are deterministic.
