From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin at intel.com>

Headline change is removal of the static branch optimisation since I couldn't
prove that it makes a significant difference in the real world. I was able
to meaure a small CPU usage decrease in our lrc tasklet, in one micro-benchmark,
but I did not feel that justified it.

There are also tweaks to engine busyness tracking and the delayed stats disable
got moved to a different patch due to the above.

Patch 1 is a small refactor to make the following work easier.

Patch 2 is the main bit.

Patch 3 is a small optimisation on top, to only run the sampling timer when it
is required. (Depending on GPU awake status and active PMU counters.)

Patches 4-6 add software engine busyness tracking, which is then used from the
PMU. This allows more efficient and more accurate engine busyness metric.

Patches 7-9 add the RC6 and interrupt count metric.

Tvrtko Ursulin (9):
  drm/i915: Extract intel_get_cagf
  drm/i915/pmu: Expose a PMU interface for perf queries
  drm/i915/pmu: Suspend sampling when GPU is idle
  drm/i915: Wrap context schedule notification
  drm/i915: Engine busy time tracking
  drm/i915/pmu: Wire up engine busy stats to PMU
  drm/i915/pmu: Add interrupt count metric
  drm/i915: Convert intel_rc6_residency_us to ns
  drm/i915/pmu: Add RC6 residency metrics
