Thomas Fleury 95bb19827e gpu: nvgpu: add sw quiesce ...

For safety build, nvgpu driver should enter SW quiesce state
in case an uncorrectable error has occurred. In this state, any
activity on the GPU should be prevented, without powering off the GPU.
Also, a minimal set of operations should be used to enter SW quiesce
state.

Entering SW quiesce state does the following:
- set sw_quiesce_pending: when this flag is set, interrupt
  handlers exit after masking interrupts. This should help mitigate
  an interrupt storm.
- wake up thread to complete quiescing.

The thread performs the following:
- set NVGPU_DRIVER_IS_DYING to prevent allocation of new resources
- disable interrupts
- disable fifo scheduling
- preempt all runlists
- set error notifier for all active channels

Note: for channels with usermode submit enabled, userspace can
still ring doorbell, but this will not trigger any work on
engines since fifo scheduling is disabled.
