[v4,0/4] drm/vc4: Add a load tracker

Message

Hi,

Here is a fourth iteration of the VC4 load tracking series, which was
initially developed by Boris Brezillon and that I have now taken over.

This new iteration takes in account comments from v3 and comes with a
new approach for avoiding underrun reports when reconfiguring the
pipeline. It is now based on detection instead of delaying the underrun
interrupt unmasking.

It can be tested with a dedicated IGT GPU Tools series:
  VC4 load tracker testing

Changes since v3:
* Returned IRQ_NONE for short line interrupt to avoid storm;
* Made register definitions with per-channel offsets more direct;
* cleaned all IRQ fields instead of writing back the status bit as
  advised by docs;
* Reworked first commit's message;
* Removed in-commit changelogs with inconsistent revision numbers;
* Removed explicit wait for sync before unmasking underrun interrupt;
* Checked that the display lists are synced before reporting underrun;

Cheers,

Paul
