If the user passes in a readonly reloc[], by the time we notice we have
already commited to modifying the execobjects, or have indeed done so
already. Reporting the failure just compounds the issue as we have no
second pass to fall back to anymore.

Testcase: igt/gem_exec_reloc/readonly
Fixes: 7dc8f1143778 ("drm/i915/gem: Drop relocation slowpath")
References: fddcd00a49e9 ("drm/i915: Force the slow path after a user-write error")

It's also written in the comment, btw.

if one day we will change igt, we can't fix this commit.

Heh, I'm old, I've been using this from the inception of igt even though
it's not formalized anywhere. All it is is a clue that there is some
code somewhere that exercises this patch in some way.

And short of including the test code in the patch... Hey wait that's what
selftests are so -- only execbuf2 is not amenable to unit testing atm, or
at least no effect has been spent doing so. A new interface would be
built around testing, but we might still struggle to create valid user
addresses. I think there's a way to do so with set_fs(USER_DS) but I am
not sure. Or we use usermodehelper to wrap the testcode and run it from
userspace but included as part of the driver sources.
