We were using first page of kernel context render state for sharing data with GuC. While it's justified by the fact that those pages are not used
(note, GuC still enforces this layout and refuses to work if we remove
the extra page in front), it's also confusing (why are we using this
particular page?). Let's allocate a separate object instead.

Hi,

Allocating the shared_data until this point (i915_guc_submission_init) will be too late for GuC's watchdog.

GuC watchdog happens without i915 knowledge, so we have to pass this shared_data_offset during guc_params_init (in params[9] for the curious) instead of a h2g command; and the GuC parameters block has this note: "These parameters are read by the firmware on startup and cannot be changed thereafter".

Michał, if you plan to send another version of this, could you move it to guc_params_init? It isn't a big issue, I can just move it when we have an open source user and can upstream GuC watchdog.

Thanks,

-Michel


Ignore my previous reply, this is already being allocated before guc_params_init as it is.

I spoke too soon (and sorry for all the spam), the kernel_context is now redundant code and should be removed from the suspend & resume functions:
