Bypass using the tasklet to submit the first request to HW, as the
tasklet may be deferred unto ksoftirqd and at a minimum will add in
excess of 10us (and maybe tens of milliseconds) to our execution
latency. This latency reduction is most notable when execution flows
between engines.
v2: Beware handling preemption completion from the direct submit path as
well.
v3: Make the abuse clear and track our extra state inside i915_tasklet.
