VPU Memory Management Unit is based on ARM MMU-600.
It allows the creation of multiple virtual address spaces for
the device and map noncontinuous host memory (there is no dedicated
memory on the VPU).
Address space is implemented as a struct ivpu_mmu_context, it has an ID,
drm_mm allocator for VPU addresses and struct ivpu_mmu_pgtable that
holds actual 3-level, 4KB page table.
Context with ID 0 (global context) is created upon driver initialization
and it's mainly used for mapping memory required to execute
the firmware.
Contexts with non-zero IDs are user contexts allocated each time
the devices is open()-ed and they map command buffers and other
workload-related memory.
Workloads executing in a given contexts have access only
to the memory mapped in this context.
This patch is has two main files:
- ivpu_mmu_context.c handles MMU page tables and memory mapping
- ivpu_mmu.c implements a driver that programs the MMU device
