[PATCH v5 00/13] nova-core: Complete GSP boot and begin RPC communication

Changes from v4 to v5:
- Fixed 2 import nits.
- Squashed a fixup to adjust GspStaticConfig (13th patch) to use wrapper instead
of directly using firmware bindings.
- Rebased on drm-rust-next.

These patches a refresh of the series adding support for final stages of the
GSP boot process where a sequencer which inteprets firmware instructions needs
to run to boot the GSP processor, followed by waiting for an INIT_DONE message
from the GSP and finally retrieving GPU information from the GSP.

The entire tree can be found at the git repository:
git: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jfern/linux.git
tag: seq-v5-4

Tested on my Ampere GA102 and I see in dmesg:
NovaCore 0000:00:07.0: GPU name: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti

Changes from v3 to v4:
- Several changes to adapt to Alexandre Courbot's GSP boot v9 series which
  had changes to the RPC command queue.
- Several changes based on feedback from Alexandre Courbot, Lyude Paul.

Changes from v2 to v3:
- Added several tags.
- Fixed commit messages, style errors.
- Added GspStaticInfo patch.
- Fixed bug found by Timur in the sequencer code (related to ignoring messages).
- Removed excessive dev_dbg prints in sequencer code (John Hubbard).

[PATCH v5 01/13] gpu: nova-core: falcon: Move waiting until halted to a helper

Move the "waiting until halted" functionality into a helper so that we
can use it in the sequencer, which is a separate sequencer operation.

[PATCH v5 07/13] gpu: nova-core: Implement the GSP sequencer

Implement the GSP sequencer which culminates in INIT_DONE message being
received from the GSP indicating that the GSP has successfully booted.

This is just initial sequencer support, the actual commands will be
added in the next patches.

[PATCH v5 12/13] gpu: nova-core: gsp: Wait for gsp initialization to complete

From: Alistair Popple <apopple at nvidia.com>

This adds the GSP init done command to wait for GSP initialization
to complete. Once this command has been received the GSP is fully
operational and will respond properly to normal RPC commands.

From: Alistair Popple <apopple at nvidia.com>

After GSP initialization is complete, retrieve the static configuration
information from GSP-RM. This information includes GPU name, capabilities,
memory configuration, and other properties. On some GPU variants, it is
also required to do this for initialization to complete.

Pushed to drm-rust-next with the changes I mentioned inline, thanks!

We will definitely want to make our interfaces evolves some more
(notably the command queue), and there are still a few nits to address,
but we have been kicking the can down the road for quite some time with
this one and in its current shape it provides a good foundation for the
next stuff to build upon.

The GSP is now initialized - not that it does anything beyond telling us
its name, but it's a milestone nonetheless! :)
