Exposes a bunch of the new features that became possible as a result
of the earlier commits. DRM will build on this in the future to add
support for features such as SCG ("async compute") and multi-device
rendering, as part of the work necessary to be able to write a half-
decent vulkan driver - finally.
For the moment, this just crudely ports DRM to the API changes.
- channel class interfaces now the same for all HW classes
- channel group class exposed (SCG)
- channel runqueue selector exposed (SCG)
- channel sub-device id control exposed (multi-device rendering)
- channel names in logging will reflect creating process, not fd owner
- explicit USERD allocation required by VOLTA_CHANNEL_GPFIFO_A and newer
- drm is smarter about determining the appropriate channel class to use

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.
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.
