From: Robert Bragg <rob...@sixbynine.org>

The newly added intel_context::global_id is suitable (a globally unique
20 bit ID) for giving to the hardware as a unique context identifier.

Compared to using the pinned address of a logical ring context these IDs
are constant for the lifetime of a context whereas a context could be
repinned at different addresses during its lifetime.

Having a stable ID is useful when we need to buffer information
associated with a context based on this ID so the association can't be
lost. For example the OA unit writes out counter reports to a circular
buffer tagged with this ID and we want to be able to accurately filter
reports for a specific context, ideally without the added complexity of
tracking context re-pinning while the OA buffer may contain reports with
older IDs.
