mainlining shenanigans
900ccf30f9
Not all chipsets have an internal buffer delaying the visibility of writes via the GGTT being visible by other physical paths, but we use a very heavy workaround for all. We only need to apply that workarounds to the chipsets we know suffer from the delay and the resulting coherency issue. Similarly, the same inconsistent coherency fouls up our ABI promise that a write into a mmap_gtt is immediately visible to others. Since the HW has made that a lie, let userspace know when that contract is broken. (Not that userspace would want to use mmap_gtt on those chipsets for other performance reasons...)

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
