This series builds upon the SVM work by Matt Brost and introduces the
ability to prefetch SVM ranges. The prefetch functionality utilizes the
existing ioctl vm_bind for the user interface.

Prefetching ensures that pages are populated in the requested region and
that PTEs are updated, thereby preventing GPU page faults.

Region 0: Ranges will remain in SMEM, and only PTE updates will occur.
Region 1: Ranges will migrate to VRAM, and PTEs will be updated
accordingly.

Himal Prasad Ghimiray (12):
  drm/xe: Introduce xe_vma_op_prefetch_range struct for prefetch of
    ranges
  drm/xe: Make xe_svm_alloc_vram public
  drm/xe/svm: Helper to add tile masks to svm ranges
  drm/xe/svm: Make to_xe_range a public function
  drm/xe/svm: Make xe_svm_range_* end/start/size public
  drm/xe/vm: Update xe_vma_ops_incr_pt_update_ops to take an increment
    value
  drm/xe/vm: Add an identifier in xe_vma_ops for svm prefetch
  drm/xe: Rename lookup_vma function to xe_find_vma_by_addr
  drm/xe/svm: Allow unaligned addresses and ranges for prefetch
  drm/xe/svm: Refactor usage of drm_gpusvm* function in xe_svm
  drm/xe/svm: Implement prefetch support for SVM ranges
  drm/xe/vm: Add debug prints for SVM range prefetch
