drm/i915: Remove bitmap tracking for used-ptes
Due to a race with the shrinker, when we try to allocate a pagetable, we
may end up shrinking it instead. This comes as a nasty surprise as we
try to dereference it to fill in the pagetable entries for the object.
In linus/master this is fixed by pinning the pagetables prior to
allocation, but that backport is roughly

i.e. unsuitable for stable. Instead we neuter the code that tried to
free the pagetables.
