drm/i915: fix stolen bios_reserved checks
I started digging this when I noticed that the BDW code was just reserving 1mb by coincidence since it was reading reserved fields. Then I noticed we didn't have any values set for SNB and earlier, and that the HSW sizes were wrong. After that, I noticed that the reserved area has a specific start, and may not exactly end where the stolen memory ends. I also noticed the base pointer can be zero. So I decided to just write a single patch fixing everything instead of 20 patches that would be much harder to review. This patch may solve random stolen memory corruption/problems on almost all platforms. Notice that since this is always dealing with the top of the stolen memory, the problems are not so easy to reproduce - especially since FBC is still disabled by default. One of the major differences of this patch is that we now look at both the size and base address. By only looking at the size we were assuming that the reserved area was always at the very top of stolen, which is not always true. After we merge the patch series that allows user space to allocate stolen memory we'll be able to write IGT tests that maybe catch the bugs fixed by this patch. v2: - s/BIOS reserved/stolen reserved/g (Chris) - Don't DRM_ERROR if we can't do anything about it (Chris) - Improve debug messages (Chris). - Use the gen7 version instead of gen6 on HSW. Tom found some documentation problems, so I think with gen7 we're on the safer side (Tom).
