[PATCH v2 0/6] Remove I915_ENGINE_FIRST_RENDER_COMPUTE

[Andi Shyti]

Hi,

While testing the multi-CCS static load balancing, Arshad  
discovered that the CCS workaround was being applied twice, due  
to commit [*].

Further discussions with Lucas led to rethinking the purpose of  
I915_ENGINE_FIRST_RENDER_COMPUTE. This flag was originally  
introduced to handle platforms with different CCS/RCS setups.  
However, for all GPUs currently supported by i915, we can assume  
the presence of at least one RCS engine, so the logic can shift  
to focus on the first CCS engine.

Based on this, the six patches in this series are mostly  
cleanup, with two main goals:

 1. Ensure the CCS engine workaround is applied only once  
 2. Remove the I915_ENGINE_FIRST_RENDER_COMPUTE flag

Thanks,  
Andi

Changelog:
==========
v1 -> v2
 - During workaround set-up, avoid checking for
   FIRST_RENDER_COMPUTE, but move the logic to the CCS engine
   section.
 - Define the FIRST_CCS flag which checks for the CCS engine
   with the lowest istance number.
 - Remove the I915_ENGINE_FIRST_RENDER_COMPUTE flag and use
   FIRST_CCS() instead for everyone using it.
