The V3D driver currently determines the GPU tech version (33, 41...) by reading a register. This approach has worked so far since this information wasn’t needed before powering on the GPU. V3D 7.1 introduces new registers that must be written to power on the GPU, requiring us to know the V3D version beforehand. To address this, associate each supported SoC with the corresponding VideoCore GPU version as part of the device data. To prevent possible mistakes, add an assertion to verify that the version specified in the device data matches the one reported by the hardware. If there is a mismatch, the kernel will trigger a warning. With the goal of maintaining consistency around the driver, use `enum v3d_gen` to assign values to `v3d->ver` and for comparisons with other V3D generations. Note that all mentions of unsupported or non-existing V3D generations (such as V3D 4.0) were removed by this commit and replaced with supported generations without functional changes.

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.
