the "XXX" is actually for missing refcnting for pin cnt (so we can
know when it is safe to unpin buffers), which I've not had time to add
yet (but is not needed yet).
On the gpu side of things, it will be another big hw change before 64b
hw (ie. the existing code that deals w/ existing registers won't be
shared, I don't think). On display side, I'm less sure, but there
isn't currently room to expand base address registers to 64bit without
shuffling a fair bit of registers around, so again probably will be a
new back-end for 64b display controller.
The GEM code would still be shared, so may need to support 64b some
day.. possibly that has to switch over to dma_addr_t and then
downcast to u32 in the mdp/adreno hw generation specific backend code.
But there is at least one more generation of hw before I have to
worry about that ;-)
