drm/i915: Stash a pointer to the obj's resv in the vma
During execbuf, a mandatory step is that we add this request (this
fence) to each object's reservation_object. Inside execbuf, we track the
vma, and to add the fence to the reservation_object then means having to
first chase the obj, incurring another cache miss. We can reduce the
number of cache misses by stashing a pointer to the reservation_object
in the vma itself.
