v2: Only declare timeslicing if we can safely preempt userspace.
Commit message got butchered up somehow so you'll need to fix that at some
point.

Since this is uapi I think we should at least have some nice kerneldoc
that explains what exactly this is, what for (link to userspace) and all
that. Ideally also minimally filing in the gaps in our uapi docs for stuff
this references.
IIUC there is no userspace apart from IGT needing it not to fail scheduling
tests on ADL.
Current tests use "has preemption + has semaphores" as a proxy to answer the
"does the kernel support timeslicing" question. This stops working with the
Guc backend because GuC decided not to support semaphores (for reasons yet
unknown, see other thread), so explicit "has timeslicing" flag is needed in
order for tests to know that GuC is supposed to support timeslicing, even if
it doesn't use semaphores for inter-ring synchronisation.
Since this if for igt only: Cant we do just extend the check in igt with
an || GEN >= 12? I really hope that our future hw will continue to support
timeslicing ...
Not the gen 12 check, but possible I think. Explicit feature test would be better, but if definitely not allowed then along the lines of:
has_timeslicing =
(has_preemption && has_semaphores) || uses_guc_submission;

Tvrtko
Also if it's not there yet, a shared helper to check for that (like we're
adding for relocations and stuff like that right now).
