The various MI_PREDICATE registers have per-engine instances. Today we only utilize the RCS0 instance of each, but that will likely change in the future; switch to parameterized register definitions to make these easier to work with going forward. Of special note is MI_PREDICATE_RESULT_2; we only use it in one place in the driver today in HSW-specific code. It turns out that the bspec (page 94) lists two different offsets for this register on HSW; one is in the standard location shared by all other platforms (base + 0x3bc) and the other is an unusual location (0x2214). We're using the second, non-standard offset in i915 today; that offset doesn't exist on any other platforms (and it's not even 100% clear that it's correct for HSW) so I've renamed the current non-standard definition to HSW_MI_PREDICATE_RESULT_2; the new cross-platform parameterized macro (which is still unused at the moment) uses the standard offset.

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.
