On some generations of chips, it is necessary to read an MMIO register
before getting the sequence number from the status page in main memory,
in order to ensure coherency; and on all generations this should be
either helpful or harmless.
In general, we want this operation to be the cheapest possible, since
we require only the side-effect of DMA completion and don't interpret
the result of the read, and don't require any coordination with other
threads, power domains, or anything else.
However, finding a suitable register may be problematic; on GEN6 chips
the ACTHD register was used, but on VLV et al access to this register
requires FORCEWAKE and therefore many complications involving spinlocks
and polling.
So this commit introduces this synchronising operation as a distinct
vfunc in uncore, so that it can be GEN- or chip-specific if needed.
For now, a sample 'universal' implementation is provided which just
reads the TAIL register of the render engine, this being a register
which should always be accessible on all GENs without requiring
forcewake or other complications.
We then change gen6_ring_get_seqno() to use this new SYNC_READ rather
than a POSTING_READ of ACTHD. Note that both older (pre-GEN6) and newer
(GEN8+) devices don't currently include any posting read in their own
get_seqno() implementations, so this affects only GEN6 and 7 devices.
