	Add the infrastructure to support the idea of multiple ringbuffers. Assign each ringbuffer an id and use that as an index for the various ring specific operations. The biggest delta is to support legacy fences. Each fence gets its own sequence number but the legacy functions expect to use a unique integer. To handle this we return a unique identifier for each submission but map it to a specific ring/sequence under the covers. Newer users use a dma_fence pointer anyway so they don't care about the actual sequence ID or ring. The actual mechanics for multiple ringbuffers are very target specific so this code just allows for the possibility but still only defines one ringbuffer for each target family.

2017-10-28	drm/msm: Add per-instance submit queues	Jordan Crouse
	Currently the behavior of a command stream is provided by the user application during submission and the application is expected to internally maintain the settings for each 'context' or 'rendering queue' and specify the correct ones. This works okay for simple cases but as applications become more complex we will want to set context specific flags and do various permission checks to allow certain contexts to enable additional privileges. Add kernel-side submit queues to be analogous to 'contexts' or 'rendering queues' on the application side. Each file descriptor instance will maintain its own list of queues. Queues cannot be shared between file descriptors. For backwards compatibility context id '0' is defined as a default context specifying no priority and no special flags. This is intended to be the usual configuration for 99% of applications so that a garden variety application can function correctly without creating a queue. Only those applications requiring the specific benefit of different queues need create one. Signed-off-by: Jordan Crouse <jcrouse@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: Rob Clark <robdclark@gmail.com>
