This patch adds the H/W queues module and the code to initialize Goya's various compute and DMA engines and their queues. Goya has 5 DMA channels, 8 TPC engines and a single MME engine. For each channel/engine, there is a H/W queue logic which is used to pass commands from the user to the H/W. That logic is called QMAN. There are two types of QMANs: external and internal. The DMA QMANs are considered external while the TPC and MME QMANs are considered internal. For each external queue there is a completion queue, which is located on the Host memory. The differences between external and internal QMANs are: 1. The location of the queue's memory. External QMANs are located on the Host memory while internal QMANs are located on the on-chip memory. 2. The external QMAN write an entry to a completion queue and sends an MSI-X interrupt upon completion of a command buffer that was given to it. The internal QMAN doesn't do that.

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.
