Chris Wilson e3243d1672 drm/i915: Split 64bit hexadecimal addresses to make them easier to read
Broadwell introduces large address spaces, greater than 32bits in width.
These require that we then store and print 64bit values. If we were to
zero pad them out to 16 hexadecimal places, we have to carefully count
the leading zeroes - which is easy to make a mistake. Conversely, if we
do not zero pad out to 16, but keep it padding to 8 hexadecimal places,
it is very easy to miss an address that is actually larger than 4GiB. A
suggested compromise is to insert a space between the upper and lower
dwords of the address so that we can continue with our accustom 32bit
parser. (Alternatively, we could do the equivalent in our userspace
decoder.)

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
