drm/i915: Add i915_gem_object_create_from_data()
i915_gem_object_create_from_data() is a generic function to save data from a plain linear buffer in a new pageable gem object that can later be accessed by the CPU and/or GPU. We will need this for the microcontroller firmware loading support code. Derived from i915_gem_object_write(), originally by Alex Dai v2: Change of function: now allocates & fills a new object, rather than writing to an existing object New name courtesy of Chris Wilson Explicit domain-setting and other improvements per review comments by Chris Wilson & Daniel Vetter v4: Rebased Issue: VIZ-4884 Signed-off-by: Alex Dai <yu.dai@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Gordon <david.s.gordon@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Tom O'Rourke <Tom.O'Rourke@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>
