[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v3] drm/i915: resize the GuC WOPCM for rc6

The attached version still does not explain that the WOPCM_TOP is to tell the GuC not to use that space.
The extra information does not aid anybody as the information is used internally within the GuC.

But, I have not actual objection to the patch.

Peter.

So, this gives the right result, but doesn't really show or explain why we have different values, or how the values are arrived at; they're just more magic numbers. Also, in the loader there's a check on the firmware size that uses different values. So I'd rather prefer the unified approach in the attached version ...
