GuC and HuC depend on struct_mutex for device reinitialization. Moving
away from this dependency requires perma-pinning the firmware images in
GGTT. The upper portion of the GuC address space has a sizeable hole
(several MB) that is inaccessible by GuC. Reserve this range within GGTT
as it can comfortably hold GuC/HuC firmware images.
v2: Reserve node rather than insert (Chris)
Simpler determination of node start/size (Daniele)
Move reserve/release out to intel_guc.* files
v3: Reserve starting at GUC_GGTT_TOP only and bail if this
fails (Chris)

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.
