drm_memcpy_from_wc() performs fast copy from WC memory type using
non-temporal instructions. Now there are two similar implementations of
this function. One exists in drm_cache.c as drm_memcpy_from_wc() and
another implementation in i915/i915_memcpy.c as i915_memcpy_from_wc().
drm_memcpy_from_wc() was the recent addition through the series
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/436276/?series=90681&rev=6

The goal of this patch series is to change all users of
i915_memcpy_from_wc() to drm_memcpy_from_wc() and a have common
implementation in drm and eventually remove the copy from i915.

Another benefit of using memcpy functions from drm is that
drm_memcpy_from_wc() is available for non-x86 architectures.
i915_memcpy_from_wc() is implemented only for x86 and prevents building
i915 for ARM64.
drm_memcpy_from_wc() does fast copy using non-temporal instructions for
x86 and for other architectures makes use of memcpy() family of
functions as fallback.

Another major difference is unlike i915_memcpy_from_wc(),
drm_memcpy_from_wc() will not fail if the passed address argument is not
alignment to be used with non-temporal load instructions or if the
platform lacks support for those instructions (non-temporal load
instructions are provided through SSE4.1 instruction set extension).
Instead drm_memcpy_from_wc() continues with fallback functions to
complete the copy.
This relieves the caller from checking the return value of
i915_memcpy_from_wc() and explicitly using a fallback.

Follow up series will be created to remove the memcpy_from_wc functions
from i915 once the dependency is completely removed.

v2: Fixed missing check to find if the address is from system memory or
    io memory and use the right initialization function to construct the
    iosys_map structure (Review feedback from Lucas)

Balasubramani Vivekanandan (7):
  drm: Relax alignment constraint for destination address
  drm: Add drm_memcpy_from_wc() variant which accepts destination
    address
  drm/i915: use the memcpy_from_wc call from the drm
  drm/i915/guc: use the memcpy_from_wc call from the drm
  drm/i915/selftests: use the memcpy_from_wc call from the drm
  drm/i915/gt: Avoid direct dereferencing of io memory
  drm/i915: Avoid dereferencing io mapped memory
