The userptr worker allows for a slight race condition where upon there
may two or more threads calling get_user_pages for the same object. When
we have the array of pages, then we serialise the update of the object.
However, the worker should only overwrite the obj->userptr.work pointer
if and only if it is the active one. Currently we clear it for a
secondary worker with the effect that we may rarely force a second
lookup.

If you hadn't done this renaming you could have gotten away without a v2 
changelog request... :)

Wouldn't obj->get_page init fit better into 
__i915_gem_userptr_set_pages? Although that code is not from this patch. 
How come it is OK not to initialize them in the non-worker case?

With the v2 changelog, or dropped rename:

v2: rebase for some recent changes, rename to fix in 80 cols.

It's done for us, the worker is the special case. I wanted to write the
set_pages initialiser differently so I could avoid this code, but I did
not prevail.
