Subject:  [PATCH 2/3] drm/i915: Allow the user to pass a context to
any ring

With full-ppgtt, we want the user to have full control over their memory
layout, with a separate instance per context. Forcing them to use a
shared memory layout for !RCS not only duplicates the amount of work we
have to do, but also defeats the memory segregation on offer.

There is no IGT coverage for this and it is quite a big change so I think we really need some.

Regards,

Tvrtko
