Since SKL the eLLC has been sitting on the far side of the system
agent, meaning the display engine can utilize it. Let's enable that.
I chose WB for the caching mode, because my numbers are indicating
that WT might actually be WB and WC might actually be UC. I'm not
100% sure that is indeed the case but at least my simple rendercopy
based benchmark didn't see any difference in performance.
Also if I configure things to do LLCeLLC+WT I still get cache dirt
on my screen, suggesting that is in fact operating in WB mode
anyway. This is also the reason I had to fix the MOCS target cache
to really say PTE rather than LLC+eLLC.
Since SKL the eLLC has been sitting on the far side of the system agent,
meaning the display engine can utilize it. Let's enable that.
Eero's earlier benchmarks numbers:
"* Results in GfxBench and Unigine (Valley/Heaven) tests were within daily
variation on the tested SKL machines
* SKL GT4e (128MB eLLC) / Wayland / Weston:
+15-20% SynMark TexMem512 (512MB of textures)
+4-6% SynMark TerrainFly*, CSCloth, ShMapVsm
-5-10% SynMark TexMem128 (128MB of textures)
* SKL GT3e (64MB eLLC) / Xorg / Unity:
+4-8% GpuTest Triangle fullscreen (FullHD)
-5-10% GpuTest Triangle windowed (1/2 screen)
* SKL GT2 (no eLLC) / Xorg / Unity:
* Some of the higher FPS SynMark pixel and vertex shader tests
are few percent higher, more than daily variance
=> Do you see any reason why this machine would be impacted
although it doesn't eLLC?"
Caveats:
- Still haven't tested with a prime setup
- Still not entirely sure this a good idea, but I've been
using it on my cfl anyway :)
v2: Split the MOCS PTE change out

The GEM object is grossly overweight for the practicality of tracking
large numbers of individual pages, yet it is currently our only
abstraction for tracking DMA allocations. Since those allocations need
to be reserved upfront before an operation, and that we need to break
away from simple system memory, we need to ditch using plain struct page
wrappers.
In the process, we drop the WC mapping as we ended up clflushing
everything anyway due to various issues across a wider range of
platforms. Though in a future step, we need to drop the kmap_atomic
approach which suggests we need to pre-map all the pages and keep them
mapped.
v2: Verify our large scratch page is suitably DMA aligned; and manually
clear the scratch since we are allocating plain struct pages full of
prior content.

On TGL, bits 2-4 in the GGTT PTE are not ignored anymore and are
instead used for some extra VT-d capabilities. We don't (yet?) have
support for those capabilities, but, given that we shared the pte_encode
function betweed GGTT and PPGTT, we still set those bits to the PPGTT
PPAT values. The DMA engine gets very confused when those bits are
set while the iommu is enabled, leading to errors. E.g. when loading
the GuC we get:
[ 9.796218] DMAR: DRHD: handling fault status reg 2
[ 9.796235] DMAR: [DMA Write] Request device [00:02.0] PASID ffffffff fault addr 0 [fault reason 02] Present bit in context entry is clear
[ 9.899215] [drm:intel_guc_fw_upload [i915]] *ERROR* GuC firmware signature verification failed
To fix this, just have dedicated gen8_pte_encode function per type of
gtt. Also, explicitly set vm->pte_encode for gen8_ppgtt, even if we
don't use it, to make sure we don't accidentally assign it to the GGTT
one, like we do for gen6_ppgtt, in case we need it in the future.
