Konsta Hölttä 9bee2fe660 gpu: nvgpu: prealloc priv cmdbuf metadata
Move preallocation of priv cmdbuf metadata structs to the priv cmdbuf
level and do it always, not only on deterministic channels. This makes
job tracking simpler and loosens dependencies from jobs to cmdbuf
internals. The underlying dma memory for the cmdbuf data has always been
preallocated.

Rename the priv cmdbuf functions to have a consistent prefix.

Refactor the channel sync wait and incr ops to free any priv cmdbufs
they allocate. They have been depending on the caller to free their
resources even on error conditions, requiring the caller to know how
they work.

The error paths that could occur after a priv cmdbuf has been allocated
have likely been wrong for a long time. Usually the cmdbuf queue allows
allocating only from one end and freeing from only the other end, as
that's natural with the hardware job queue. However, in error conditions
the just recently allocated entries need to be put back. Improve the
interface for this.

[not part of the cherry-pick:] Delete the error prints about not enough
priv cmd buffer space. That is not an error. When obeying the
user-provided job sizes more strictly, momentarily running out of job
tracking resources is possible when the job cleanup thread does not
catch up quickly enough. In such a case the number of inflight jobs on
the hardware could be less than the maximum, but the inflight job count
that nvgpu sees via the consumed resources could reach the maximum.
Also remove the wrong translation to -EINVAL from err from one call to
nvgpu_priv_cmdbuf_alloc() - the -EAGAIN from the failed allocation is
important.

[not part of the cherry-pick: a bunch of MISRA mitigations.]
