AMDGPU heavily relies on ring buffers to manage its components; as a
result, it has an elaborate mechanism of operation with multiple details
around it. This commit introduces new documentation on ring buffers,
detailing their management and expanding the explanation of Enforce
isolation. Finally, this commit also adds the documentation available in
the amdgpu_ring.c file to it.

This feature enables process isolation on the graphics engine by
serializing access to it and adding a cleaner shader which clears LDS
(Local Data Store) and GPRs (General Purpose Registers) between jobs.
