[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 10/12] drm/i915: Disable use of stolen area by User when Intel RST is present

From: Ankitprasad Sharma <ankitprasad.r.sharma at intel.com>

The BIOS RapidStartTechnology may corrupt the stolen memory across S3
suspend due to unalarmed hibernation, in which case we will not be able
to preserve the User data stored in the stolen region. Hence this patch
tries to identify presence of the RST device on the ACPI bus, and
disables use of stolen memory (for persistent data) if found.

v2: Updated comment, updated/corrected new functions private to driver
(Chris/Tvrtko)

v3: Disabling stolen by default, wait till required acpi changes to
detect device presence are pulled in (Ankit)

v4: Enabled stolen by default as required acpi changes are merged
(Ankit)

v5: renamed variable, is IS_ENABLED() in place of #ifdef, use char*
instead of structures (Lukas)
