Linux kernel source tree

The latest GuC firmware drops the context descriptor pool in favour of passing all creation data in the create H2G. It also greatly simplifies the work queue and removes the process descriptor used for multi-LRC submission. So, remove all mention of LRC and process descriptors and update the registration code accordingly. Unfortunately, the new API also removes the ability to set default values for the scheduling policies at context registration time. Instead, a follow up H2G must be sent. The individual scheduling policy update H2G commands are also dropped in favour of a single KLV based H2G. So, change the update wrappers accordingly and call this during context registration.. Of course, this second H2G per registration might fail due to being backed up. The registration code has a complicated state machine to cope with the actual registration call failing. However, if that works then there is no support for unwinding if a further call should fail. Unwinding would require sending a H2G to de-register - but that can't be done because the CTB is already backed up. So instead, add a new flag to say whether the context has a pending policy update. This is set if the policy H2G fails at registration time. The submission code checks for this flag and retries the policy update if set. If that call fails, the submission path early exists with a retry error. This is something that is already supported for other reasons.

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.
