Due to i915_perf assuming that it can use the i915_gem_context reference
to protect its i915->gem.contexts.list iteration, we need to defer removal
of the context from the list until last reference to the context is put.
However, there is a risk of triggering kernel warning on contexts list not
empty at driver release time if we deleagate that task to a worker for
i915_gem_context_release_work(), unless that work is flushed first.
Unfortunately, it is not flushed on driver release. Fix it.
Instead of additionally calling flush_workqueue(), either directly or via
a new dedicated wrapper around it, replace last call to
i915_gem_drain_freed_objects() with existing i915_gem_drain_workqueue()
that performs both tasks.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
