drm/i915: Keep one request in our ring_list
Don't pre-emptively retire the oldest request in our ring's list if it
is the only request. We keep various bits of state alive using the
active reference from the request and would rather transfer that state
over to a new request rather than the more involved process of retiring
and reacquiring it.
