This description seems confusing.  Explicitly allocating memory for CCS
data sounds more like the legacy AuxCCS rather than FlatCCS.  For
FlatCCS, the storage for the CCS data is already pre-allocated at a
well-defined location (I'm assuming it's in some kind of stolen memory
on an igpu?)

On discrete GPUs, if a surface was being migrated from LMEM to SMEM,
then you'd probably need extra storage for the SMEM copy.  But that
doesn't seem like it would be relevant to an igpu since there's no
lmem<->smem migration happening.

As a general comment, it might be worth starting this series with a
patch that describes and documents how FlatCCS actually works on an
igpu.  Since the main surfaces are in smem rather than a separate lmem
area, how does the CCS work?  Where does the CCS data live and how are
addresses of main surfaces (in smem) translated to CCS offsets?  Is
there CCS space set aside for the entire SMEM physical address space,
even though a lot of that memory is going to be used for non-graphics
purposes?

Changes like this that change platform-specific Xe1 vs Xe2 details
should probably be kept in a separate patch from the more general
"support FlatCCS on an igpu" work happening here.
