Currently, when our driver becomes idle for i915.pc8_timeout (default:
5s) we enable PC8, so we save some power, but not everything we can.
Then, while PC8 is enabled, if we stay idle for more
autosuspend_delay_ms (default: 10s) we'll enter runtime PM and put the
graphics device in D3 state, saving even more power. The two features
are separate things with increasing levels of power savings, but if we
disable PC8 we'll never get into D3.
While from the modularity point of view it would be nice to keep these
features as separate, we have reasons to merge them:
- We are not aware of anybody wanting a "PC8 without D3" environment.
- If we keep both features as separate, we'll have to to test both
PC8 and PC8+D3 code paths. We're already having a major pain to
make QA do automated testing of just one thing, testing both paths
will cost even more.
- Only Haswell+ supports PC8, so if we want to add runtime PM support
to, for example, IVB, we'll have to copy some code from the PC8
feature to runtime PM, so merging both features as a single thing
will make it easier for enabling runtime PM on other platforms.
This patch only does the very basic steps required to have PC8 and
runtime PM merged on a single feature: the next patches will take care
of cleaning up everything.
v2: - Rebase.
v3: - Rebase.
- Fully remove the deprecated i915 params since Daniel doesn't
consider them as part of the ABI.
v4: - Rebase.
- Fix typo in the commit message.
v5: - Rebase, again.
- Add a huge comment explaining the different forcewake usage
(Chris, Daniel).
- Use open-coded forcewake functions (Daniel).

The command parser scans batch buffers submitted via execbuffer ioctls before
the driver submits them to hardware. At a high level, it looks for several
things:
1) Commands which are explicitly defined as privileged or which should only be
used by the kernel driver. The parser generally rejects such commands, with
the provision that it may allow some from the drm master process.
2) Commands which access registers. To support correct/enhanced userspace
functionality, particularly certain OpenGL extensions, the parser provides a
whitelist of registers which userspace may safely access (for both normal and
drm master processes).
3) Commands which access privileged memory (i.e. GGTT, HWS page, etc). The
parser always rejects such commands.
See the overview comment in the source for more details.
This patch only implements the logic. Subsequent patches will build the tables
that drive the parser.

If we can't actually determine at run-time we have a fused-off display,
provide at least an option to disable it.
v2: Move the i915.disable_display test in a separate check

Having to use i915.i915_foo is inconsistent and a bit on the verbose
side. Drop the prefix per Daniel's request, who also says this is not
ABI we need to maintain.

With 20+ module parameters, I think referring to them via a struct
improves clarity over just having a bunch of globals. While at it, move
the parameter initialization and definitions into a new file
i915_params.c to reduce clutter in i915_drv.c.
Apart from the ill-named i915_enable_rc6, i915_enable_fbc and
i915_enable_ppgtt parameters, for which we lose the "i915_" prefix
internally, the module parameters now look the same both on the kernel
command line and in code. For example, "i915.modeset".
The downsides of the change are losing static on a couple of variables
and not having the initialization and module_param_named() right next to
each other. On the other hand, all module parameters are now defined in
one place at i915_params.c. Plus you can do this to find all module
parameter references:
$ git grep "i915\." -- drivers/gpu/drm/i915
v2:
- move the definitions into a new file
- s/i915_params/i915/
- make i915_try_reset i915.reset, for consistency
