On discrete platforms like DG2, we need to support a minimum page size of 64K when dealing with device local-memory. This is quite tricky for various reasons, so try to document the new implicit uapi for this.

* PDE is forbidden by the hardware.
*
* 2) We still need to support 4K PTEs for I915_MEMORY_CLASS_SYSTEM
* objects.
*
* To keep things simple for userland, we mandate that any GTT mappings
* must be aligned to and rounded up to 2MB. As this only wastes virtual
* address space and avoids userland having to copy any needlessly
* complicated PDE sharing scheme (coloring) and only affects GD2, this
* id deemed to be a good compromise.
"only affects DG2, this is"
Except these typos, patch looks good to me
