The Vulkan driver in Mesa for Intel hardware never uses relocations if
it's running on a version of i915 that supports at least softpin which
all versions of i915 supporting Gen12 do. On the OpenGL side, Gen12+ is
only supported by iris which never uses relocations. The older i965
driver in Mesa does use relocations but it only supports Intel hardware
through Gen11 and has been deprecated for all hardware Gen9+. The
compute driver also never uses relocations. This only leaves the media
driver which is supposed to be switching to softpin going forward.
Making softpin a requirement for all future hardware seems reasonable.
Rejecting relocations starting with Gen12 has the benefit that we don't
have to bother supporting it on platforms with local memory. Given how
much CPU touching of memory is required for relocations, not having to
do so on platforms where not all memory is directly CPU-accessible
carries significant advantages.
