We have now a struct xe_ip to fully describe an IP, but we are only
using that for GMDID-based IPs.
For pre-GMDID IPs, we still describe release info (version and name) via
feature descriptors (struct xe_{graphics,media}_desc). Let's convert
those to use struct xe_ip.
With this, we have a uniform way of describing IPs in the xe driver
instead of having different approaches based on whether the IPs use
GMDIDs or not.
A nice side-effect of this change is that now we have an easy way to
lookup, in the source code, mappings between versions, names and
features for all supported IPs.
v2:
- Store pointers to struct xe_ip instead xe_{graphics,media}_desc in
struct xe_device_desc.

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 reStructuredText 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.
