This mode allows to assign EUs to pools.
The command to enable this mode is sent in auxiliary golden context batch
as this is only issued once with each context initialization. Thanks to
Mika for the preliminary review.

A quick explanation for why this has to be in the kernel would be nice.
Privileged instruction?

This purpose of auxiliary batch is explained in patch2, but I can add some explanation about this one also.


Not fond of the split between this and patch 4. Patch 4 intoduces one
feature flag that looks different to the one we use here to enable
support.
I will patch4 as separate as it deals with libdrm changes but use the feature flag in this one.
