The way our hardware is designed doesn't seem to let us use the
MI_RECORD_PERF_COUNT command without setting up a circular buffer.
In the case where the user didn't request OA reports to be available
through the i915 perf stream, we can set the OA buffer to the minimum
size to avoid consuming memory which won't be used by the driver.
v2: Simplify oa buffer size exponent selection (Chris)
Reuse vma size field (Lionel)
v3: Restrict size opening parameter to values supported by HW (Chris)
v4: Drop out of date comment (Matt)
Add debug message when buffer size is rejected (Matt)

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
