Since we create a separate kernel BO to hold the profiling information slot, we
need one that would be able to accomodate as many slots as the maximum number of
profiled jobs we can insert simultaneously into the queue's ring buffer. Because
profiled jobs always take more instructions than unprofiled ones, then we would
usually need fewer slots than the number of unprofiled jobs we could insert at
once in the ring buffer.
Because we represent profiling metrics with a bit mask, then we need to test the
size of the CS for every single metric enabled in isolation, since enabling more
than one will always mean a bigger CS, and therefore fewer jobs tracked at once
in the queue's ring buffer.
In our case, calling calc_job_credits(0) would simply tell us the number of
instructions we need for a normal job with no profiled features enabled, which
would always requiere less instructions than profiled ones, and therefore more
slots in the profiling info kernel BO. But we don't need to keep track of
profiling numbers for unprofiled jobs, so there's no point in calculating this
number.
At first I was simply allocating a profiling info kernel BO as big as the number
of simultaneous unprofiled job slots in the ring queue, but Boris pointed out
that since queue ringbuffers can be as big as 2GiB, a lot of this memory would
be wasted, since profiled jobs always require more slots because they hold more
instructions, so fewer profiling slots in said kernel BO.
The value of this approach will eventually manifest if we decided to keep track of
more profiling metrics, since this code won't have to change at all, other than
adding new profiling flags in the panthor_device_profiling_flags enum.
