Alex Deucher 8cda7a4f96 drm/amdgpu/UAPI: add new CTX OP to get/set stable pstates
Add a new CTX ioctl operation to set stable pstates for profiling.
When creating traces for tools like RGP or using SPM or doing
performance profiling, it's required to enable a special
stable profiling power state on the GPU.  These profiling
states set fixed clocks and disable certain other power
features like powergating which may impact the results.

Historically, these profiling pstates were enabled via sysfs,
but this adds an interface to enable it via the CTX ioctl
from the application.  Since the power state is global
only one application can set it at a time, so if multiple
applications try and use it only the first will get it,
the ioctl will return -EBUSY for others.  The sysfs interface
will override whatever has been set by this interface.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
