The engine provides a mirror of the CSB in the HWSP. If we use the cacheable reads from the HWSP, we can shave off a few mmio reads per context-switch interrupt (which are quite frequent!). Just removing a couple of mmio is not enough to actually reduce any latency, but a small reduction in overall cpu usage. Much appreciation for Ben dropping the bombshell that the CSB was in the HWSP and for Michel in digging out the details. v2: Don't be lazy, add the defines for the indices. v3: Include the HWSP in debugfs/i915_engine_info v4: Check for GVT-g, it currently depends on intercepting CSB mmio v5: Fixup GVT-g mmio path v6: Disable HWSP if VT-d is active as the iommu adds unpredictable memory latency. (Mika) v7: Also markup the CSB read with READ_ONCE() as it may still be an mmio read and we want to stop the compiler from issuing a later (v.slow) reload.
