The field used to store the chunk size if 12 bits wide, and the encoding
is chunk_size = chunk_header.chunk_size << 12, which gives us a
theoretical [4k:8M] range. This range is further limited by
implementation constraints, and all known implementations seem to
impose a [128k:8M] range, so do the same here.
We also relax the power-of-two constraint, which doesn't seem to
exist on v10. This will allow userspace to fine-tune initial/max
tiler memory on memory-constrained devices.
v4:
- Actually fix the range in the kerneldoc
v3:
- Add R-bs
- Fix valid range in the kerneldoc
v2:
- Turn the power-of-two constraint into a page-aligned constraint to allow
fine-tune of the initial/max heap memory size
- Fix the panthor_heap_create() kerneldoc

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 reStructuredText 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.
