Linux kernel source tree

Executable buffers have an alignment restriction that they can't cross 16MB boundary as the GPU program counter is 24-bits. This restriction is currently not handled and we just get lucky. As current userspace assumes all BOs are executable, that has to remain the default. So add a new PANFROST_BO_NOEXEC flag to allow userspace to indicate which BOs are not executable. There is also a restriction that executable buffers cannot start or end on a 4GB boundary. This is mostly avoided as there is only 4GB of space currently and the beginning is already blocked out for NULL ptr detection. Add support to handle this restriction fully regardless of the current constraints. For existing userspace, all created BOs remain executable, but the GPU VA alignment will be increased to the size of the BO. This shouldn't matter as there is plenty of GPU VA space.

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.
