The value of the AFBC_FEATURES register is required by userspace to determine AFBC support on Bifrost. A user on our IRC channel (#panfrost) reported a workload that raised a fault on one system's Mali G31 but worked flawlessly with another system's Mali G31. We determined the cause to be missing AFBC support on one vendor's Mali implementation -- it turns out AFBC is optional on Bifrost! Whether AFBC is supported or not is exposed in the AFBC_FEATURES register on Bifrost, which reads back as 0 on Midgard. A zero value indicates AFBC is fully supported, provided the architecture itself supports AFBC, allowing backwards-compatibility with Midgard. Bits 0 and 15 indicate that AFBC support is absent for texturing and rendering respectively. The user experiencing the fault reports that AFBC_FEATURES reads back 0x10001 on their system, confirming the architectural lack of AFBC. Userspace needs this parameter to know to disable AFBC on that chip, and perhaps others. v2: Fix typo from copy-paste fail. v3: Bump the UABI version. This commit was cherry-picked from another series so chalking this up to a rebase fail.

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 Restructured Text 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.
