The IPC driver is used to send and receive messages to/from firmware
running on the VPU.
The only supported IPC message format is Job Submission Model (JSM)
defined in vpu_jsm_api.h header.

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

VPU stands for Versatile Processing Unit and it's a CPU-integrated
inference accelerator for Computer Vision and Deep Learning
applications.
The VPU device consist of following components:
- Buttress - provides CPU to VPU integration, interrupt, frequency and
power management.
- Memory Management Unit (based on ARM MMU-600) - translates VPU to
host DMA addresses, isolates user workloads.
- RISC based microcontroller - executes firmware that provides job
execution API for the kernel-mode driver
- Neural Compute Subsystem (NCS) - does the actual work, provides
Compute and Copy engines.
- Network on Chip (NoC) - network fabric connecting all the components
This driver supports VPU IP v2.7 integrated into Intel Meteor Lake
client CPUs (14th generation).
Module sources are at drivers/accel/ivpu and module name is
"intel_vpu.ko".
This patch includes only very besic functionality:
- module, PCI device and IRQ initialization
- register definitions and low level register manipulation functions
- SET/GET_PARAM ioctls
- power up without firmware
