Turns out we actually already have some companies, such as Lenovo,
shipping machines with AMOLED screens that don't allow controlling the
backlight through the usual PWM interface and only allow controlling it
through the standard EDP DPCD interface. One example of one of these
laptops is the X1 Extreme 2nd Generation.
Since we've got systems that need this turned on by default now to have
backlight controls working out of the box, let's start auto-detecting it
for systems by default based on what the VBT tells us. We do this by
changing the default value for the enable_dpcd_backlight module param
from 0 to -1.

Add a debugfs subdirectory i915_params with all the i915 module
parameters. This is a first step, with lots of boilerplate, and not much
benefit yet.
This will result in a new device specific debugfs directory at
/sys/kernel/debug/dri/<N>/i915_params duplicating the module specific
sysfs directory at /sys/module/i915/parameters/. Going forward, all
users of the parameters should use the debugfs, with the module
parameters being phased out.
Add debugfs permissions to I915_PARAMS_FOR_EACH(). This duplicates the
mode with module parameter sysfs, but the goal is to make the module
parameters read-only initial values for device specific parameters.
0 mode will bypass debugfs creation. Use it for verbose_state_checks
which will need special attention in follow-up work.

Intended for upstream testing so that we can still exercise the LMEM
plumbing and !i915_ggtt_has_aperture paths. Smoke tested on Skull Canyon
device. This works by allocating an intel_memory_region for a reserved
portion of system memory, which we treat like LMEM. For the LMEMBAR we
steal the aperture and 1:1 it map to the stolen region.
To enable simply set the i915 modparam fake_lmem_start= on the kernel
cmdline with the start of reserved region(see memmap=). The size of the
region we can use is determined by the size of the mappable aperture, so
the size of reserved region should be >= mappable_end. For now we only
enable for the selftests. Depends on CONFIG_DRM_I915_UNSTABLE being
enabled.
eg. memmap=2G$16G i915.fake_lmem_start=0x400000000
v2: make fake_lmem_start an i915 modparam

The i915.alpha_support module parameter has caused some confusion along
the way. Add new i915.force_probe parameter to specify PCI IDs of
devices to probe, when the devices are recognized but not automatically
probed by the driver. The name is intended to reflect what the parameter
effectively does, avoiding any overloaded semantics of "alpha" and
"support".
The parameter supports "" to disable, "<pci-id>,[<pci-id>,...]" to
enable force probe for one or more devices, and "*" to enable force
probe for all known devices.
Also add new CONFIG_DRM_I915_FORCE_PROBE config option to replace the
DRM_I915_ALPHA_SUPPORT option. This defaults to "*" if
DRM_I915_ALPHA_SUPPORT=y.
Instead of replacing i915.alpha_support immediately, let the two coexist
for a while, with a deprecation message, for a transition period.

We currently have two module parameters that control GuC:
"enable_guc_loading" and "enable_guc_submission". Whenever
we need submission=1, we also need loading=1. We also need
loading=1 when we want to want to load and verify the HuC.
Lets combine above module parameters into one "enable_guc"
modparam. New supported bit values are:
0=disable GuC (no GuC submission, no HuC)
1=enable GuC submission
2=enable HuC load
Special value "-1" can be used to let driver decide what
option should be enabled for given platform based on
hardware/firmware availability or preference.
Explicit enabling any of the GuC features makes GuC load
a required step, fallback to non-GuC mode will not be
supported.
v2: Don't use -EIO
v3: define modparam bits (Chris)
v4: rely on implicit cast (Chris)

It has been many years since the last confirmed sighting (and fix) of an
RC6 related bug (usually a system hang). Remove the parameter to stop
users from setting dangerous values, as they often set it during triage
and end up disabling the entire runtime pm instead (the option is not a
fine scalpel!).
Furthermore, it allows users to set known dangerous values which were
intended for testing and not for production use. For testing, we can
always patch in the required setting without having to expose ourselves
to random abuse.
v2: Fixup NEEDS_WaRsDisableCoarsePowerGating fumble, and document the
lack of ilk support better.
v3: Clear intel_info->rc6p if we don't support rc6 itself.

Sometimes it would be most enlightening to debug systems by replacing
the VBT to be used. For example, in the referenced bug the BIOS provides
different VBT depending on the boot mode (UEFI vs. legacy). It would be
interesting to try the failing boot mode with the VBT from the working
boot, and see if that makes a difference.
Add a module parameter to load the VBT using the firmware loader, not
unlike the EDID firmware mechanism.
As a starting point for experimenting, one can pick up the BIOS provided
VBT from /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_opregion/i915_vbt.
v2: clarify firmware load return value check (Bob)
v3: kfree the loaded firmware blob

Add heuristic to decide that AUX or PWM pin should use for
backlight brightness adjustment and modify i915 param description
to have auto, force disable, and force enable.
The heuristic to determine that using AUX pin is better than using
PWM pin is that the panel support any of the feature list here.
- Regional backlight brightness adjustment
- Backlight PWM frequency set
- More than 8 bits resolution of brightness level
- Backlight enablement via AUX and not by BL_ENABLE pin

The term "preliminary hardware support" has always caused confusion both
among users and developers. It has always been about preliminary driver
support for new hardware, and not so much about preliminary hardware. Of
course, initially both the software and hardware are in early stages,
but the distinction becomes more clear when the user picks up production
hardware and an older kernel to go with it, with just the early support
we had for the hardware at the time the kernel was released. The user
has to specifically enable the alpha quality *driver* support for the
hardware in that specific kernel version.
Rename preliminary_hw_support to alpha_support to emphasize that the
module parameter, config option, and flag are about software, not about
hardware. Improve the language in help texts and debug logging as well.
This appears to be a good time to do the change, as there are currently
no platforms with preliminary^W alpha support.

We currently capture the GPU state after we detect a hang. This is vital
for us to both triage and debug hangs in the wild (post-mortem
debugging). However, it comes at the cost of running some potentially
dangerous code (since it has to make very few assumption about the state
of the driver) that is quite resource intensive.
This patch introduces both a method to disable error capture at runtime
(for users who hit bugs at runtime and need a workaround) and to disable
error capture at compiletime (for realtime users who want to minimise
any possible latency, and never require error capture, saving ~30k of
code). The cost is that we now have to be wary of (and test!) a kconfig
flag and a module parameter. The effect of the module parameter is easy
to verify through code inspection and runtime testing, but a kconfig flag
needs regular compile checking.
