Jay Cornwall 2774c63ef3 drm/amdkfd: Use volatile MTYPE in default/alternate apertures
MTYPE_NC_NV (0) marks scalar/vector L1 cache lines as non-volatile.
Cache lines loaded through these apertures are intended to be
invalidated before (and sometimes during) a dispatch. The non-volatile
qualifier prevents these cache lines from being distinguished from
those loaded through the private aperture.

Use MTYPE_NC (1) instead on both Gfx7 and Gfx8. This allows the
compiler to use the BUFFER_WBINVL1_VOL instruction and is a precursor
to automatic per-dispatch scalar/vector L1 volatile invalidation.

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.
