Starting with ROCm 5.4+, MI100 and MI200 make use of the translate
further bit in the page table. This bit enables mixing 4kiB and 2MiB
pages and is functionally equivalent to mixing page sizes using the
PDE.P bit for which gem5 currently has support.
With PDE.P bit set, we stop walking and the page size is equal to the
level in the page table we stopped at. For example, stopping at level
2 would be a 1GiB page, stopping at level 3 would be a 2MiB page.
This assumes most pages are 4kiB.
When the F bit is used, it is assumed most pages are 2MiB and we will
stop walking at the 3rd level of the page table unless the F bit is set.
When the F bit is set, the 2nd level PDE contains a block fragment size
representing the page size of the next PDE in the form of 2^(12+size).
If the next page has the F bit set we continue walking to the 4th level.
The block fragment size is hardcoded to 9 in the driver therefore we
assert that the block fragment size must be 0 or 9.
This enables MI200 with ROCm 5.4+ in gem5. This functionality was
determine by examining the driver source code in Linux and there is no
public documentation about this feature or why the change is made in or
around ROCm 5.4.
