The design of the OA unit has been split into several units. We now
have a global unit (OAG) and a render specific unit (OAR). This leads
to some changes on how we program things. Some details :
OAR:
- has its own set of counter registers, they are per-context
saved/restored
- counters are not written to the circular OA buffer
- a snapshot of the counters can be acquired with
MI_RECORD_PERF_COUNT, or a single counter can be read with
MI_STORE_REGISTER_MEM.
OAG:
- has global counters that increment across context switches
- counters are written into the circular OA buffer (if requested)
v2: Fix checkpatch warnings on code style (Lucas)
v3: (Umesh)
- Update register from which tail, status and head are read
- Update logic to sample context reports
- Update whitelist mux and b counter regs
v4: Fix a bug when updating context image for new contexts (Umesh)
v5: Squash patch enabling save/restore of counters into context image
We want this so we can preempt performance queries and keep the
system responsive even when long running queries are ongoing. We
avoid doing it for all contexts.
- use LRI to modify context control (Chris)
- use MASKED_FIELD to program just the masked bits (Chris)
- disable save/restore of counters on cleanup (Chris)
v6: Do not use implicit parameters (Chris)

The oa object manages the oa buffer and must be allocated when the user
intends to read performance counter snapshots. This can be achieved by
making the oa object part of the stream object which is allocated when a
stream is opened by the user.
Attributes in the oa object that are gen-specific are moved to the perf
object so that they can be initialized on driver load.
The split provides a better separation of the objects used in perf
implementation of i915 driver so that resources are allocated and
initialized only when needed.
v2: Fix checkpatch warnings
v3: Addressed Lionel's review comment
v4: Rebase
v5: Fix rebase/merge issue with ratelimit_state_init
