Rob Herring 7282f7645d drm/panfrost: Implement per FD address spaces
Up until now, a single shared GPU address space was used. This is not
ideal as there's no protection between processes and doesn't work for
supporting the same GPU/CPU VA feature. Most importantly, this will
hopefully mitigate Alyssa's fear of WebGL, whatever that is.

Most of the changes here are moving struct drm_mm and struct
panfrost_mmu objects from the per device struct to the per FD struct.
The critical function is panfrost_mmu_as_get() which handles allocating
and switching the h/w address spaces.

There's 3 states an AS can be in: free, allocated, and in use. When a
job runs, it requests an address space and then marks it not in use when
job is complete(but stays assigned). The first time thru, we find a free
AS in the alloc_mask and assign the AS to the FD. Then the next time
thru, we most likely already have our AS and we just mark it in use with
a ref count. We need a ref count because we have multiple job slots. If
the job/FD doesn't have an AS assigned and there are no free ones, then
we pick an allocated one not in use from our LRU list and switch the AS
from the old FD to the new one.

- Thermal support.
- Bifrost support:
- DT bindings (Neil, WIP)
- MMU page table format and address space setup
- Bifrost specific feature and issue handling
- Coherent DMA support
- Support userspace controlled GPU virtual addresses. Needed for Vulkan. (Tomeu)
- Compute job support. So called 'compute only' jobs need to be plumbed up to
userspace.
