[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v3 02/10] drm/i915: Move legacy kernel context pinning to intel_ringbuffer.c

This is so that we have symmetry with intel_lrc.c and avoid a source of if (i915.enable_execlists) layering violation within i915_gem_context.c - that is we move the specific handling of the dev_priv->kernel_context for legacy submission into the legacy submission code. This depends upon the
