The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

Update the TLB dropin statistics kept for each GRU context. Count TLB
dropins separate from the misses - some misses do not result in a TLB
dropin. Some of the diagnostics need both counts.

Add anticipatory TLB dropins for GRU TLB misses that occur on BCOPY

Add a debug option to the SGI GRU driver for flushing GRU cache lines from
memory. In theory this is not needed but it is useful for debugging.
This has no use by end users.

Add table & user request infrastructure that is needed to allow users to
specify the blade and chiplet for allocation of GRU contexts. Use of this
information is in a subsequent patch.

Minor fixes to the SGI GRU grudump facility:
- fix address where user data is written
- add gru number to data passed to user
- indicate if context is locked

Change the user GRU request for specifying the "task_slice" option to use
a generic infrastructure that can be expanded in the future to include
additional context options. No new capabilities are added with this
patch.

Delete the user request for fetching the status of a GRU chiplet. This
request has been made obsolete by other changes. Note: this is not a
change to a user API - there are no compatibility issues with this change.

Change the kernel self tests that can be optionally executed on GRU
initialization. This is primarily for testing.
Eliminate the BUG statements on failure and return bad status. Add ioctl
interface to execute the tests on demand.
