Allocate a page for use as a status page by a group of timelines, as we only need a dword of storage for each (rounded up to the cacheline for safety) we can pack multiple timelines into the same page. Each timeline will then be able to track its own HW seqno. v2: Reuse the common per-engine HWSP for the solitary ringbuffer timeline, so that we do not have to emit (using per-gen specialised vfuncs) the breadcrumb into the distinct timeline HWSP and instead can keep on using the common MI_STORE_DWORD_INDEX. However, to maintain the sleight-of-hand for the global/per-context seqno switchover, we will store both temporarily (and so use a custom offset for the shared timeline HWSP until the switch over). v3: Keep things simple and allocate a page for each timeline, page sharing comes next. v4: I was caught repeating the same MI_STORE_DWORD_IMM over and over again in selftests. v5: And caught red handed copying create timeline + check.

README
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.
