Tejas Upadhyay 5488bec96b drm/xe/uapi: Use hint for guc to set GT frequency
Allow user to provide a low latency hint. When set, KMD sends a hint
to GuC which results in special handling for that process. SLPC will
ramp the GT frequency aggressively every time it switches to this
process.

We need to enable the use of SLPC Compute strategy during init, but
it will apply only to processes that set this bit during process
creation.

Improvement with this approach as below:

Before,

:~$ NEOReadDebugKeys=1 EnableDirectSubmission=0 clpeak --kernel-latency
Platform: Intel(R) OpenCL Graphics
  Device: Intel(R) Graphics [0xe20b]
    Driver version  : 24.52.0 (Linux x64)
    Compute units   : 160
    Clock frequency : 2850 MHz
    Kernel launch latency : 283.16 us

After,

:~$ NEOReadDebugKeys=1 EnableDirectSubmission=0 clpeak --kernel-latency
Platform: Intel(R) OpenCL Graphics
  Device: Intel(R) Graphics [0xe20b]
    Driver version  : 24.52.0 (Linux x64)
    Compute units   : 160
    Clock frequency : 2850 MHz

    Kernel launch latency : 63.38 us

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 reStructuredText 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.
