[v6,0/5] Support fdinfo runtime and memory stats on Panthor

Message

This patch series enables userspace utilities like gputop and nvtop to
query a render context's fdinfo file and figure out rates of engine
and memory utilisation.

Changelog:
v6:
 - Addressed some nits and style issues.
 - Enforced static assert equality of instruction buffer when calculating job
 credits or copying them into the ringbuffer.
 - Added explanation to the way in which job credits and profiled job size is done.
 - Broke down fdinfo enablement patch into two, one of them dealing with adding
 support for calculating the current and top operating device frequencies
 - Fixed race at the time drm file-wide profiling stats are gathered from groups.
v5:
 - Moved profiling information slots into a per-queue BO and away from syncobjs.
 - Decide on size of profiling slots BO from size of CS for minimal profiled job
 - Turn job and device profiling flag into a bit mask so that individual metrics
 can be enabled separately.
 - Shrunk ringbuffer slot size to that of a cache line.
 - Track profiling slot indeces separately from the job's queue ringbuffer's
 - Emit CS instructions one by one and tag them depending on profiling mask
 - New helper for calculating job credits depending on profiling flags
 - Add Documentation file for sysfs profiling knob
 - fdinfo will only show engines or cycles tags if these are respectively enabled.
v4:
 - Fixed wrong assignment location for frequency values in Panthor's devfreq
 - Removed the last two commits about registering size of internal BO's
 - Rearranged patch series so that sysfs knob is done last and all the previous
 time sampling and fdinfo show dependencies are already in place
v3:
 - Fixed some nits and removed useless bounds check in panthor_sched.c
 - Added support for sysfs profiling knob and optional job accounting
 - Added new patches for calculating size of internal BO's
v2:
 - Split original first patch in two, one for FW CS cycle and timestamp
 calculations and job accounting memory management, and a second one
 that enables fdinfo.
 - Moved NUM_INSTRS_PER_SLOT to the file prelude
 - Removed nelem variable from the group's struct definition.
 - Precompute size of group's syncobj BO to avoid code duplication.
 - Some minor nits.
