Lucas Stach 9a48b1bdb2 etnaviv: add texture descriptor suballocator
Texture descriptors currently waste a massive ammount of memory, as every
one is allocated via a separate BO. As the allocation granularity of the
kernel is 4KB and the descriptor is only 256B, 93.75% of the allocated
memory is wasted.

Add a simple suballocator for the texture descriptors, to allocate multiple
ones out of a single kernel BO. This isn't perfect, as freed slots in the
suballocated resource are not reused, but worst-case we end up with the
same waste as we had before. This also potentially improves efficiency at
the kernel side, as this reduces the number of BOs needed for the sampler
views in each submit.

As the BO is now used by multiple descriptors, avoid syncing with the GPU
via the cpu_prep/fini calls, as to not introduce stalls between pending
rendering and new descriptors being filled. This is safe, as each
suballocation slot is only used once, so newly filled slots are certainly
not in use by the GPU.

Source
------

This repository lives at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa.
Other repositories are likely forks, and code found there is not supported.


Build & install
---------------

You can find more information in our documentation (`docs/install.rst
<https://mesa3d.org/install.html>`_), but the recommended way is to use
Meson (`docs/meson.rst <https://mesa3d.org/meson.html>`_):

.. code-block:: sh

  $ mkdir build
  $ cd build
  $ meson ..
  $ sudo ninja install


Support
-------

Many Mesa devs hang on IRC; if you're not sure which channel is
appropriate, you should ask your question on `OFTC's #dri-devel
<irc://irc.oftc.net/dri-devel>`_, someone will redirect you if
necessary.
Remember that not everyone is in the same timezone as you, so it might
take a while before someone qualified sees your question.
To figure out who you're talking to, or which nick to ping for your
question, check out `Who's Who on IRC
