      drm/panfrost: Remove features meant for userspace · 16a89697
      Alyssa Rosenzweig authored
      Early versions of the legacy kernel driver included comprehensive
      feature lists for every GPU, even though most of the enumerated features
      only matter to userspace. For example, HW_FEATURE_INTERPIPE_REG_ALIASING
      was a feature bit indicating that a GPU had "interpipe register
      aliasing": arithmetic, load/store, and texture instruction all use
      common general-purpose registers. GPUs without this feature bit have
      dedicated load/store and texture "registers". Whether a GPU has this
      feature or not is irrelevant to the kernel; it only matters in the
      userspace compiler's register allocator. It's silly to enumerate it in
      kernel space, and the information is understandably unused. To
      underscore the point, this feature only makes sense in the context of
      the Midgard instruction set. Bifrost never had dedicated load/store or
      texture registers, so the feature bit was vacuously set for all Bifrost
      hardware, even though this conveys no useful information.
      
      To clean up the feature list, delete feature bits which could not
      possibly matter to the kernel, leaving only those which do affect the
      register-level operation of the chip.
