[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v2 00/21] Fix performance regressions with TLB and add GuC support

TLB invalidation is a slow operation. It should not be doing lightly, as it
causes performance regressions, like this:

[178.821002] i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] *ERROR* rcs0 TLB invalidation did not complete in 4ms!

This series contain 

1) some patches that makes TLB invalidation to happen only on
active, non-wedged engines, doing cache invalidation in batch 
and only when GT objects are exposed to userspace:

  drm/i915/gt: Ignore TLB invalidations on idle engines
  drm/i915/gt: Only invalidate TLBs exposed to user manipulation
  drm/i915/gt: Skip TLB invalidations once wedged
  drm/i915/gt: Batch TLB invalidations
  drm/i915/gt: Move TLB invalidation to its own file

2) It fixes two bugs, being the first a workaround:

  drm/i915/gt: Invalidate TLB of the OA unit at TLB invalidations
  drm/i915: Invalidate the TLBs on each GT

  drm/i915/guc: Introduce TLB_INVALIDATION_ALL action

3) It adds GuC support. Besides providing TLB invalidation on some
additional hardware, this should also help serializing GuC operations
with TLB invalidation:

  drm/i915/guc: Introduce TLB_INVALIDATION_ALL action
  drm/i915/guc: Define CTB based TLB invalidation routines
  drm/i915: Add platform macro for selective tlb flush
  drm/i915: Define GuC Based TLB invalidation routines
  drm/i915: Add generic interface for tlb invalidation for XeHP
  drm/i915: Use selective tlb invalidations where supported

4) It adds the corresponding kernel-doc markups for the kAPI
used for TLB invalidation.

While I could have split this into smaller pieces, I'm opting to send
them altogether, in order for CI trybot to better verify what issues
will be closed with this series.

v2:
  - no changes. Just rebased on the top of drm-tip: 2022y-07m-14d-08h-35m-36s,
   as CI trybot was having troubles applying it. Hopefully, it will now work.
