For ease of use (i.e. avoiding a few checks and function calls), store
the object's cache coherency next to the cache is dirty bit.
Specifically this patch aims to reduce the frequency of no-op calls to
i915_gem_object_clflush() to counter-act the increase of such calls for
GPU only objects in the previous patch.
v2: Replace cache_dirty & ~cache_coherent with cache_dirty &&
!cache_coherent as gcc generates much better code for the latter

Currently, we only mark the CPU cache as dirty if we skip a clflush.
This leads to some confusion where we have to ask if the object is in
the write domain or missed a clflush. If we always mark the cache as
dirty, this becomes a much simply question to answer.
The goal remains to do as few clflushes as required and to do them as
late as possible, in the hope of deferring the work to a kthread and not
block the caller (e.g. execbuf, flips).
v2: Always call clflush before GPU execution when the cache_dirty flag
is set. This may cause some extra work on llc systems that migrate dirty
buffers back and forth - but we do try to limit that by only setting
cache_dirty at the end of the gpu sequence.
v3: Always mark the cache as dirty upon a level change, as we need to
invalidate any stale cachelines due to external writes.

If we fail to dma-map the object, the most common cause is lack of space
inside the SW-IOTLB due to fragmentation. If we recreate the_sg_table
using segments of PAGE_SIZE (and single page allocations), we may succeed
in remapping the scatterlist.

Commit 920cf41949 ("drm/i915: Introduce an internal allocator for
disposable private objects") introduced a regression for the kernel
running as Xen dom0: when switching to graphics mode a GPU HANG
occurred.
Reason seems to be a missing adaption similar to that done in
commit 7453c549f5 ("swiotlb: Export swiotlb_max_segment to users")
to i915_gem_object_get_pages_internal().
So limit the maximum page order to be used according to the maximum
swiotlb segment size instead to the complete swiotlb size.

If we abort the i915_gem_internal get_pages, we mark the failing sg as
the last. However, that means we iterate upto and including the failing
sg element and results in us trying to free the unallocated sg_page().

The internal object is a collection of struct pages and so is
intrinsically linked to the available physical memory on the machine,
and not an arbitrary type from the uabi. Use phys_addr_t so the link
between size and memory consumption is clear, and then double check that
we don't overflow the maximum object size.
v2: Also assert that size is not zero - a mistake I made a few times
while writing selftests.

Commit 1bec9b0bda ("drm/i915/shrinker: Only shmemfs objects

in shrinker callbacks.
Restore that so idle userptr objects can be discarded in order
to free up memory.
One change further to what was introduced in 1bec9b0bda is
to start considering userptr objects in oom but that should
also be a correct thing to do.

The plan is to move obj->pages out from under the struct_mutex into its
own per-object lock. We need to prune any assumption of the struct_mutex
from the get_pages/put_pages backends, and to make it easier we pass
around the sg_table to operate on rather than indirectly via the obj.

The plan is to make obtaining the backing storage for the object avoid
struct_mutex (i.e. use its own locking). The first step is to update the
API so that normal users only call pin/unpin whilst working on the

Quite a few of our objects used for internal hardware programming do not
benefit from being swappable or from being zero initialised. As such
they do not benefit from using a shmemfs backing storage and since they
are internal and never directly exposed to the user, we do not need to
worry about providing a filp. For these we can use an
drm_i915_gem_object wrapper around a sg_table of plain struct page. They
are not swap backed and not automatically pinned. If they are reaped
by the shrinker, the pages are released and the contents discarded. For
the internal use case, this is fine as for example, ringbuffers are
pinned from being written by a request to be read by the hardware. Once
they are idle, they can be discarded entirely. As such they are a good
match for execlist ringbuffers and a small variety of other internal
objects.
In the first iteration, this is limited to the scratch batch buffers we
use (for command parsing and state initialisation).
v2: Allocate physically contiguous pages, where possible.
v3: Reduce maximum order on subsequent requests following an allocation
failure.
v4: Fix up mismatch between swiotlb segment size and page count (it
counts in 2k units, not 4k pages)
