H A Di915_vma.cbef27bdb Mon Oct 09 04:20:19 CDT 2017 Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> drm/i915: Assert we do not try to expand VMA for hugepage inside GGTT

We only apply the hugepage PD redirection inside the ppGTT, so during
i915_vma_insert() we want to exclude the GGTT from the additional
alignment constraints (thereby avoiding the extra GTT pressure from
fragmentation). Add an assert to document that intention alongside the
comment.

v2: After discussion with Matthew, make it a blanket GGTT ban
(previously we allowed the expansion for appgtt, and so indirectly
ggtt). There are issues we need to fix before allowing the current
appgtt to be used with hugepages, and if we do, we probably want more
care over when to expand/align, as the mappable aperture inside the ggtt
is precious.
