Quite a few of our objects used for internal hardware programming do not
benefit from being swappable or from being zero initialised. As such
they do not benefit from using a shmemfs backing storage and since they
are internal and never directly exposed to the user, we do not need to
worry about providing a filp. For these we can use an
drm_i915_gem_object wrapper around a sg_table of plain struct page. They
are not swap backed and not automatically pinned. If they are reaped
by the shrinker, the pages are released and the contents discarded. For
the internal use case, this is fine as for example, ringbuffers are
pinned from being written by a request to be read by the hardware. Once
they are idle, they can be discarded entirely. As such they are a good
match for execlist ringbuffers and a small variety of other internal
objects.
In the first iteration, this is limited to the scratch batch buffers we
use (for command parsing and state initialisation).
v2: Allocate physically contiguous pages, where possible.
