[PATCH v2 1/2] drm: rework flip-work helpers to avoid calling func when the FIFO is full

[Boris BREZILLON]

Make use of lists instead of kfifo in order to dynamically allocate
task entry when someone require some delayed work, and thus preventing
drm_flip_work_queue from directly calling func instead of queuing this
call.
This allow drm_flip_work_queue to be safely called even within irq
handlers.

Add new helper functions to allocate a flip work task and queue it when
needed. This prevents allocating data within irq context (which might
impact the time spent in the irq handler).
