Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915: Use the correct size of the GTT for placing the
 per-process entries

commit 9a0f938bde74bf9e50bd75c8de9e38c1787398cd upstream.

The current layout is to place the per-process tables at the end of the
GTT. However, this is currently using a hardcoded maximum size for the GTT
and not taking in account limitations imposed by the BIOS. Use the value
for the total number of entries allocated in the table as provided by
the configuration registers.
