drm/i915/guc: Introduce context parent-child relationship
Introduce context parent-child relationship. Once this relationship is created all pinning / unpinning operations are directed to the parent context. The parent context is responsible for pinning all of its children and itself. This is a precursor to the full GuC multi-lrc implementation but aligns to how GuC mutli-lrc interface is defined - a single H2G is used register / deregister all of the contexts simultaneously. Subsequent patches in the series will implement the pinning / unpinning operations for parent / child contexts. v2: (Daniel Vetter) - Add kernel doc, add wrapper to access parent to ensure safety v3: (John Harrison) - Fix comment explaing GEM_BUG_ON in to_parent() - Make variable names generic (non-GuC specific) v4: (John Harrison) - s/its'/its/g Signed-off-by: Matthew Brost <matthew.brost@intel.com> Reviewed-by: John Harrison <John.C.Harrison@Intel.com> Signed-off-by: John Harrison <John.C.Harrison@Intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20211014172005.27155-8-matthew.brost@intel.com
