Ensure correct handling of closed VMAs on multi-gt platforms to prevent
Use-After-Free. Currently, when GT0 goes idle, closed VMAs that are
exclusively added to GT0's closed_vma link (gt->closed_vma) and
subsequently freed by i915_vma_parked(), which assumes the entire GPU is
idle. However, on platforms with multiple GTs, such as MTL, GT1 may
remain active while GT0 is idle. This causes GT0 to mistakenly consider
the closed VMAs in its closed_vma list as unnecessary, potentially
leading to Use-After-Free issues if a job for GT1 attempts to access a
freed VMA.
Although we do take a wakeref for GT0 but it happens later, after
evaluating VMAs. To mitigate this, it is necessary to hold a GT0 wakeref
early.
v2: Use gt id to detect multi-tile(Andi)
Fix the incorrect error path.
v3: Add more comment(Andi)
Use the new gt var when possible(Andrzej)

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.
