drm/i915: Export ability of changing cache levels to userspace
By selecting the cache level (essentially whether or not the CPU snoops any updates to the bo, and on more recent machines whether it resides inside the CPU's last-level-cache) a userspace driver is able to then manage all of its memory within buffer objects, if it so desires. This enables the userspace driver to accelerate uploads and more importantly downloads from the GPU and to able to mix CPU and GPU rendering/activity efficiently. Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> [danvet: Added code comment about where we plan to stuff platform specific cacheing control bits in the ioctl struct.] Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>
