Slice/subslice/EU information should be obtained via the topology

the old GETPARAM lookups on Xe_HP and beyond where we can't return
meaningful values.

The slice mask lookup is meaningless since Xe_HP doesn't support
traditional slices (and we make no attempt to return the various new
units like gslices, cslices, mslices, etc.) here.

The subslice mask lookup is even more problematic; given the distinct
masks for geometry vs compute purposes, the combined mask returned here
is likely not what userspace would want to act upon anyway.  The value
is also limited to 32-bits by the nature of the GETPARAM ioctl which is
sufficient for the initial Xe_HP platforms, but is unable to convey the
larger masks that will be needed on other upcoming platforms.  Finally,
the value returned here becomes even less meaningful when used on
multi-tile platforms where each tile will have its own masks.

Sounds fair. We've been relying on the topology query in Mesa since it's available and it's a requirement for Gfx10+.

FYI, we're also not using I915_PARAM_EU_TOTAL on Gfx10+ for the same reason.
