If this is the only use of ascii85_encode_to_buf I don't think we need it in the
common header - the same functionality can just be built in here.

We wouldn't need the encoded bool if you used different pointers for the
non-encoded and encoded objects -
if (!encoded) {
encoded = adreno_gpu_ascii85_encode(raw);
kvfree(raw);
raw = NULL;
}
And then just blindly kvfree() both in the destroy function - I think that
would be a bit clearer than trying to reuse the buffer.

This implies we should make a sub struct to store the data / size / state of the
buffers so this can turn into:
adreno_show_object(&(state->ring[i].object))
We could repurpose msm_gpu_state_bo for this task - this would dovetail nicely
into the suggestion above to use individual pointers for the encoded and
non-encoded buffers.

And then this would turn into just adreno_show_object(p, &state->bos[i]);
