Gustavo SousaandThomas Hellström e23fafb859 drm/xe/rtp: Add struct types for RTP tables
We currently have a mixture of styles for our RTP tables with respect of
how we define the number of entries:

  * xe_rtp_process_to_sr() expects to receive the number of entries as
    arguments;
  * xe_rtp_process() expects the array to have a sentinel at the end of
    the array;
  * in xe_rtp_test.c, even though xe_rtp_process_to_sr() does not
    require a sentinel value, we need to rely on that technique to be
    able to count xe_rtp_entry_sr entries because simply using
    ARRAY_SIZE() is not possible.

The style used by xe_rtp_process_to_sr() makes it hard to share the
tables with other compilation units (e.g. kunit tests), since the number
of entries is calculated with ARRAY_SIZE(), which is done at compile
time.

Since we use the size of the tables to create some bitmasks, using a
sentinel style doesn't seem great either.

A way to reconcile things into a single style is to have a struct type
that would hold the entries array and the number of entries.  Since we
have xe_rtp_entry and xe_rtp_entry_sr, we would have one type for each.

The advantage of the proposed approach is that now we have a nice way to
share the tables directly to kunit tests with information about their
size.

v6:
    - Removed sentinels that are not needed

v5:
    - Removed added code from conflict resolution issues

v4:
    - Removed conflicts with main branch

v3:
    - No changes

v2:
    - Add compatibility with new xe_rtp_table_sr format for
      "bad-mcr-reg-forced-to-regular" and
      "bad-regular-reg-forced-to-mcr"

Linux kernel
============

The Linux kernel is the core of any Linux operating system. It manages hardware,
system resources, and provides the fundamental services for all other software.

Quick Start
-----------

* Report a bug: See Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-issues.rst
* Get the latest kernel: https://kernel.org
* Build the kernel: See Documentation/admin-guide/quickly-build-trimmed-linux.rst
* Join the community: https://lore.kernel.org/

Essential Documentation
-----------------------

All users should be familiar with:

* Building requirements: Documentation/process/changes.rst
* Code of Conduct: Documentation/process/code-of-conduct.rst
* License: See COPYING

Documentation can be built with make htmldocs or viewed online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
