[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 05/10] drm/i915: Support for creating Stolen memory backed objects

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

Extend the drm_i915_gem_create structure to add support for
creating Stolen memory backed objects. Added a new flag through
which user can specify the preference to allocate the object from
stolen memory, which if set, an attempt will be made to allocate
the object from stolen memory subject to the availability of
free space in the stolen region.

v2: Rebased to the latest drm-intel-nightly (Ankit)

v3: Changed versioning of GEM_CREATE param, added new comments (Tvrtko)

v4: Changed size from 32b to 64b to prevent userspace overflow (Tvrtko)
Corrected function arguments ordering (Chris)

v5: Corrected function name (Chris)

v6: Updated datatype for flags to keep sizeof(drm_i915_gem_create) u64
aligned (Chris)

v7: Use first 8 bits of gem_create flags for placement (Chris), Add helper
function for object allocation from stolen region (Ankit)

v8: Added comment explaining STOLEN placement flag (Chris)

Testcase: igt/gem_stolen
