Add a tiny per-engine request mempool so that we should always have a request available for powermanagement allocations from tricky contexts. This reserve is expected to be only used for kernel contexts when barriers must be emitted [almost] without fail. The main consumer for this reserved request is expected to be engine-pm, for which we know that there will always be at least the previous pm request that we can reuse under mempressure (so there should always be a spare request for engine_park()). This is an alternative to using a comparatively bulky mempool, which requires custom handling for both our reserved allocation requirement and to protect our TYPESAFE_BY_RCU slab cache. The advantage of mempool would be that it would allow us to keep a larger per-engine request pool. However, converting over to mempool is straightforward should the need arise.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
