[PATCH 3/3] drm/amdgpu/vcn: Add parameter to force (en/dis)abling indirect SRAM mode

Currently the FW loading path perform some checks based on IP model
and in case it is advertised as supported, the VCN indirect SRAM
mode is used.

Happens that in case there's any issue on FW and this mode ends-up
not being properly supported, the driver probe fails [0]. Debugging
this requires driver rebuilding, so to allow fast debug and experiments,
add a parameter to force setting indirect SRAM mode to true/false from
the kernel command-line; parameter default is -1, which doesn't change
the current driver's behavior.

[0] Example of this issue, observed on Steam Deck:

[drm] kiq ring mec 2 pipe 1 q 0
[drm] failed to load ucode VCN0_RAM(0x3A)
[drm] psp gfx command LOAD_IP_FW(0x6) failed and response status is (0xFFFF0000)
amdgpu 0000:04:00.0: [drm:amdgpu_ring_test_helper [amdgpu]] *ERROR* ring vcn_dec_0 test failed (-110)
[drm:amdgpu_device_init.cold [amdgpu]] *ERROR* hw_init of IP block <vcn_v3_0> failed -110
amdgpu 0000:04:00.0: amdgpu: amdgpu_device_ip_init failed
amdgpu 0000:04:00.0: amdgpu: Fatal error during GPU init
