Add an entry for the new uapi needed for small BAR on DG2+.
v2:
- Some spelling fixes and other small tweaks. (Akeem & Thomas)
- Rework error capture interactions, including no longer needing
NEEDS_CPU_ACCESS for objects marked for capture. (Thomas)
- Add probed_cpu_visible_size. (Lionel)
v3:
- Drop the vma query for now.
- Add unallocated_cpu_visible_size as part of the region query.
- Improve the docs some more, including documenting the expected
behaviour on older kernels, since this came up in some offline
discussion.
v4:
- Various improvements all over. (Tvrtko)
