The new VM_BIND interface only supported 4K pages. This was problematic as
it leaves performance on the table because GPUs don't have sophisticated
TLB hardware. Additionally, this meant that we couldn't enable compression
on the userspace side as the HW supports compression on larger page sizes
only which was a major (>50% in some cases) performance loss.
This patchset sets out to add support for larger page sizes and also
enable compression when userspace binds with the corresponding PTE kinds
and alignment.
