[Intel-gfx] [RFC PATCH 00/11] Refactor HW workaround code

[Oscar Mateo]

Currently, deciding how/where to apply new workarounds is challenging. Often,
workarounds end up applied incorrectly and get lost under certain circumstances
(e.g. a context switch or a GPU reset). This is a proposal to attempt to
eliminate some of this pain, by clarifying the current classification of
workarounds (context saved/restored, global registers, whitelisting, BB),
putting them together on the same file, and improving the existing validation
infrastructure (debugfs/i-g-t).

Oscar Mateo (11):
  drm/i915: No need for RING_MAX_NONPRIV_SLOTS space
  drm/i915: Move a bunch of workaround-related code to its own file
  drm/i915: Split out functions for different kinds of workarounds
  drm/i915: Move workarounds from init_clock_gating
  drm/i915: Rename saved workarounds to make it explicit that they are
    context WAs
  drm/i915: Save all MMIO WAs and apply them at a later time
  drm/i915: Save all Whitelist WAs and apply them at a later time
  drm/i915: Print all workaround types correctly in debugfs
  drm/i915: Move WA BB stuff to the workarounds file as well
  drm/i915: Document the i915_workarounds file
  drm/i915: Remove Gen9 WAs with no effect
