Up until now, contexts had one (and only one) backing object that was
used by the hardware to save/restore render ring contexts (via the
MI_SET_CONTEXT command). Other rings did not have or need this, so
our i915_hw_context struct had a 1:1 relationship with a a real HW
context.
With Logical Ring Contexts and Execlists, this is not possible anymore:
all rings need a backing object, and it cannot be reused. To prepare
for that, rename our contexts to the more generic term intel_context.

In the upcoming patches we plan to break the correlation between
engine command streamers (a.k.a. rings) and ringbuffers, so it
makes sense to refactor the code and make the change obvious.

Ignore the cache bits in PPAT and just set the snoop bit where
appropriate. BDW WB is mapped to snooped access, while all other
modes are mapped to non-snooped access.
The hardware supposedly ignores everything except the snoop bit
in the PPAT entries.
Additionally the hardware actually enforces snooping for all
page table accesses, and thus the snoop bit is ignored for PDEs.
v2: Rebased on top of the bdw resume fix to reload the ppat entries.
v3: Rebase on top of the i915_gem_gtt.h header extraction.

This file contains all necessary defines, prototypes and typesdefs for
manipulating GEN graphics address translation (this does not include the
legacy AGP driver)
Reiterating the comment in the header,
"Please try to maintain the following order within this file unless it
makes sense to do otherwise. From top to bottom:
1. typedefs
2. #defines, and macros
3. structure definitions
4. function prototypes
Within each section, please try to order by generation in ascending
order, from top to bottom (ie. GEN6 on the top, GEN8 on the bottom)."
I've made some minor cleanups, and fixed a couple of typos while here -
but there should be no functional changes.
The purpose of the patch is to reduce clutter in our main header file,
making room for new growth, and make documentation of our interfaces
easier by splitting things out.
With a little more work, like making i915_gtt a pointer, we could
potentially completely isolate this header from i915_drv.h. At the
moment however, I don't think it's worth the effort.
Personally, I would have liked to put the PTE encoding functions in this
file too, but I didn't want to rock the boat too much.
A similar patch has been in use on my machine for some time. This exact
patch though has only been compile tested.
