[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v2 00/18] 48-bit PPGTT

These are the rebased patches, after Mika's ppgtt clean-up series (and reusing
the macros added). New functions also follow these changes.

In order expand the GPU address space, a 4th level translation is added, the
Page Map Level 4 (PML4). This PML4 has 256 PML4 Entries (PML4E), PML4[0-255],
each pointing to a PDP. All the existing "dynamic alloc ppgtt" functions are
used, only adding the 4th level changes. I also updated some remaining
variables that were 32b only.

There are 2 hardware workarounds needed to allow correct operation with 48b
addresses (Wa32bitGeneralStateOffset & Wa32bitInstructionBaseOffset). I added a
flag (I915_EXEC_SUPPORT_48BADDRESS) that will indicate if a given object can be
allocated outside the first 4 PDPs; if that's the case, insert will use the
DRM_MM_CREATE_TOP flag. I'm also including an igt test for this change.

This feature is only available in BDW and Gen9, requires LRC submission
mode (execlists) and setting i915.enable_ppgtt=3.

Also note that this expanded address space is only available for full PPGTT,
aliasing PPGTT remains 32b.
