Commit 38b7cc448a ("gpu: nova-core: implement Display for Spec") in
drm-rust-next introduced some usage of the Display trait, but the
Display trait is being modified in the rust tree this cycle. Thus, to
avoid conflicts with the Rust tree, tweak how the formatting machinery
is used in a way where it works both with and without the changes in the
Rust tree.

Pass in a PCI device to Spec::new(), and provide a Display
implementation for boot42, in order to provide a clear, concise report
of what happened: the driver read NV_PMC_BOOT42, and found that the GPU
is not supported.
For very old GPUs (older than Fermi), the driver still returns ENODEV,
but it does so without a driver-specific dmesg report. That is exactly
appropriate, because if such a GPU is installed, it can only be
supported by Nouveau. And if so, the user is not helped by additional
error messages from Nova.
Here's the full dmesg output for a Blackwell (not yet supported) GPU:
NovaCore 0000:01:00.0: Probe Nova Core GPU driver.
NovaCore 0000:01:00.0: Unsupported chipset: boot42 = 0x1b2a1000 (architecture 0x1b, implementation 0x2)

NVIDIA GPUs are moving away from using NV_PMC_BOOT_0 to contain
architecture and revision details, and will instead use NV_PMC_BOOT_42
in the future. NV_PMC_BOOT_0 will contain a specific set of values
that will mean "go read NV_PMC_BOOT_42 instead".
Change the selection logic in Nova so that it will claim Turing and
later GPUs. This will work for the foreseeable future, without any
further code changes here, because all NVIDIA GPUs are considered, from
the oldest supported on Linux (NV04), through the future GPUs.
Add some comment documentation to explain, chronologically, how boot0
and boot42 change with the GPU eras, and how that affects the selection
logic.

This commit introduces core infrastructure for handling GSP command and
message queues in the nova-core driver. The command queue system enables
bidirectional communication between the host driver and GSP firmware
through a remote message passing interface.
The interface is based on passing serialised data structures over a ring
buffer with separate transmit and receive queues. Commands are sent by
writing to the CPU transmit queue and waiting for completion via the
receive queue.
To ensure safety mutable or immutable (depending on whether it is a send
or receive operation) references are taken on the command queue when
allocating the message to write/read to. This ensures message memory
remains valid and the command queue can't be mutated whilst an operation
is in progress.
Currently this is only used by the probe() routine and therefore can
only used by a single thread of execution. Locking to enable safe access
from multiple threads will be introduced in a future series when that
becomes necessary.

There are times where we need to store a constant value defined as a
larger type (e.g. through a binding) into a smaller type, knowing
that the value will fit. Rust, unfortunately, only provides us with the
`as` operator for that purpose, the use of which is discouraged as it
silently strips data.
Extend the `num` module with functions allowing to perform the
conversion infallibly, at compile time.
Example:
const FOO_VALUE: u32 = 1;
// `FOO_VALUE` fits into a `u8`, so the conversion is valid.
let foo = num::u32_to_u8::<{ FOO_VALUE }>();
We are going to use this feature extensively in Nova.

Compute more of the required FB layout information to boot the GSP
firmware.
This information is dependent on the firmware itself, so first we need
to import and abstract the required firmware bindings in the `nvfw`
module.
Then, a new FB HAL method is introduced in `fb::hal` that uses these
bindings and hardware information to compute the correct layout
information.
This information is then used in `fb` and the result made visible in
`FbLayout`.
These 3 things are grouped into the same patch to avoid lots of unused
warnings that would be tedious to work around. As they happen in
different files, they should not be too difficult to track separately.

The core library's `From` implementations do not cover conversions
that are not portable or future-proof. For instance, even though it is
safe today, `From<usize>` is not implemented for `u64` because of the
possibility to support larger-than-64bit architectures in the future.
However, the kernel supports a narrower set of architectures, and in the
case of Nova we only support 64-bit. This makes it helpful and desirable
to provide more infallible conversions, lest we need to rely on the `as`
keyword and carry the risk of silently losing data.
Thus, introduce a new module `num` that provides safe const functions
performing more conversions allowed by the build target, as well as
`FromSafeCast` and `IntoSafeCast` traits that are just extensions of
`From` and `Into` to conversions that are known to be lossless.
