Merge drm/drm-next into drm-intel-gt-next

Merge drm/drm-next into drm-intel-gt-next
We need
4ba4f1afb6a9 ("perf: Generic hotplug support for a PMU with a scope")
in order to land a i915 PMU simplification and a fix. That landed in 6.12
and we are stuck at 6.9 so lets bump things forward.

xdrgen: Rename "variable-length strings"
I misread RFC 4506. The built-in data type is called simply
"string", as there is no fixed-length variety.

tools: Add xdrgen
Add a Python-based tool for translating XDR specifications into XDR
encoder and decoder functions written in the Linux kernel's C coding
style. The generator attempts to match the usual C coding style of
the Linux kernel's SunRPC consumers.
This approach is similar to the netlink code generator in
tools/net/ynl .
The maintainability benefits of machine-generated XDR code include:
- Stronger type checking
- Reduces the number of bugs introduced by human error
- Makes the XDR code easier to audit and analyze
- Enables rapid prototyping of new RPC-based protocols
- Hardens the layering between protocol logic and marshaling
- Makes it easier to add observability on demand
- Unit tests might be built for both the tool and (automatically)
for the generated code
In addition, converting the XDR layer to use memory-safe languages
such as Rust will be easier if much of the code can be converted
automatically.
