drm/vc4: Add support for branching in shader validation.
We're already checking that branch instructions are between the start of the shader and the proper PROG_END sequence. The other thing we need to make branching safe is to verify that the shader doesn't read past the end of the uniforms stream. To do that, we require that at any basic block reading uniforms have the following instructions: load_imm temp, <next offset within uniform stream> add unif_addr, temp, unif The instructions are generated by userspace, and the kernel verifies that the load_imm is of the expected offset, and that the add adds it to a uniform. We track which uniform in the stream that is, and at draw call time fix up the uniform stream to have the address of the start of the shader's uniforms at that location.
