GuC-based submission is mostly the same as execlist mode, up to
intel_logical_ring_advance_and_submit(), where the context being
dispatched would be added to the execlist queue; at this point
we submit the context to the GuC backend instead.
There are, however, a few other changes also required, notably:
1. Contexts must be pinned at GGTT addresses accessible by the GuC
i.e. NOT in the range [0..WOPCM_SIZE), so we have to add the
PIN_OFFSET_BIAS flag to the relevant GGTT-pinning calls.
2. The GuC's TLB must be invalidated after a context is pinned at
a new GGTT address.
3. GuC firmware uses the one page before Ring Context as shared data.
Therefore, whenever driver wants to get base address of LRC, we
will offset one page for it. LRC_PPHWSP_PN is defined as the page
number of LRCA.
4. In the work queue used to pass requests to the GuC, the GuC
firmware requires the ring-tail-offset to be represented as an
11-bit value, expressed in QWords. Therefore, the ringbuffer
size must be reduced to the representable range (4 pages).

Defer adding #defines until needed [Chris Wilson]
Rationalise type declarations [Chris Wilson]
v4:
Squashed kerneldoc patch into here [Daniel Vetter]
v5:
Update request->tail in code common to both GuC and execlist modes.
Add a private version of lr_context_update(), as sharing the
execlist version leads to race conditions when the CPU and
the GuC both update TAIL in the context image.
Conversion of error-captured HWS page to string must account
for offset from start of object to actual HWS (LRC_PPHWSP_PN).

A GuC client has its own doorbell and workqueue. It maintains the
doorbell cache line, process description object and work queue item.
A default guc_client is created for the i915 driver to use for
normal-priority in-order submission.
Note that the created client is not yet ready for use; doorbell
allocation will fail as we haven't yet linked the GuC's context
descriptor to the default contexts for each ring (see later patch).

v5:

v6:
Fix GuC doorbell cacheline selection code (the
cacheline-within-page calculation was wrong).
Rename GuC priorities to make them closer to the names used in
the GuC firmware source, matching what the autogenerated
versions will (probably) be.
Add per-ring statistics to client.

This adds the first of the data structures used to communicate with the
GuC (the pool of guc_context structures).
We create a GuC-specific wrapper round the GEM object allocator as all
GEM objects shared with the GuC must be pinned into GGTT space at an
address that is NOT in the range [0..WOPCM_TOP), as that range of GGTT
addresses is not accessible to the GuC (from the GuC's point of view,
it's permanently reserved for other objects such as the BootROM & SRAM).
Later, we will need to allocate additional GuC-sharable objects for the
submission client(s) and the GuC's debug log.

This fetches the required firmware image from the filesystem,
then loads it into the GuC's memory via a dedicated DMA engine.
This patch is derived from GuC loading work originally done by
Vinit Azad and Ben Widawsky.
v2:
Various improvements per review comments by Chris Wilson
v3:
Removed 'wait' parameter to intel_guc_ucode_load() as firmware
prefetch is no longer supported in the common firmware loader,
per Daniel Vetter's request.
Firmware checker callback fn now returns errno rather than bool.

Move the call to intel_guc_ucode_init() later, so that it can
allocate GEM objects, and have it fetch the firmware; then
intel_guc_ucode_load() doesn't need to fetch it later.
