    drm/xe/guc: Use exec queue hints for GT frequency
    
    Allow user to provide a low latency hint per exec queue. When set,
    KMD sends a hint to GuC which results in special handling for this
    exec queue. SLPC will ramp the GT frequency aggressively every time
    it switches to this exec queue.
    
    We need to enable the use of SLPC Compute strategy during init, but
    it will apply only to exec queues that set this bit during exec queue
    creation.
    
    Improvement with this approach as below:
    
    Before,
    
    :~$ NEOReadDebugKeys=1 EnableDirectSubmission=0 clpeak --kernel-latency
    Platform: Intel(R) OpenCL Graphics
      Device: Intel(R) Graphics [0xe20b]
        Driver version  : 24.52.0 (Linux x64)
        Compute units   : 160
        Clock frequency : 2850 MHz
        Kernel launch latency : 283.16 us
    
    After,
    
    :~$ NEOReadDebugKeys=1 EnableDirectSubmission=0 clpeak --kernel-latency
    Platform: Intel(R) OpenCL Graphics
      Device: Intel(R) Graphics [0xe20b]
        Driver version  : 24.52.0 (Linux x64)
        Compute units   : 160
        Clock frequency : 2850 MHz
    
        Kernel launch latency : 63.38 us
    
    UMD will indicate low latency hint with flag as mentioned below,
    
    *     struct drm_xe_exec_queue_create exec_queue_create = {
    *          .flags = DRM_XE_EXEC_QUEUE_LOW_LATENCY_HINT or 0
    *          .extensions = 0,
    *          .vm_id = vm,
    *          .num_bb_per_exec = 1,
    *          .num_eng_per_bb = 1,
    *          .instances = to_user_pointer(&instance),
    *     };
    *     ioctl(fd, DRM_IOCTL_XE_EXEC_QUEUE_CREATE, &exec_queue_create);

    Note: There is outstanding issue on guc side to be not able to switch to max
    frequency as per strategy indicated by KMD, so for experminet/test result
    hardcoding apporch was taken and passed to guc as policy. Effort on debugging
    from guc side is going on in parallel.
    
    V3:
      - Conver user flag to kernel internal flag and use (Oak)
      - Support query config for use to check kernel support (Jose)
      - Dont need to take runtime pm (Vinay)
    V2:
      - DRM_XE_EXEC_QUEUE_LOW_LATENCY_HINT 1 is already planned for other hint(Szymon)
      - Add motivation to description (Lucas)
