This patch is continuation of the effort to move all pointers in i915, which at any point may be pointing to device memory or system memory, to iosys_map interface. More details about the need of this change is explained in the patch series which initiated this task https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/99711/ This patch converts all access to the lrc_desc through iosys_map interfaces.

previously we would re-use whatever was left in guc->lrc_desc_pool_vaddr. Here we are changing it to always zero everything and set the fields we are interested in. As I'm not too familiar with this part and I see us traversing child guc_process_desc which may point to the same id, it doesn't _feel_ safe. Did you check if this is not zero'ing what it shouldn't? Matt Brost / John / Daniele, could you clarify? thanks Lucas De Marchi
