In order to be able to evict the gen6 ppgtt, we have to unpin it at some point. We can simply use our context activity tracking to know when the ppgtt is no longer in use by hardware, and so only keep it pinned while being used a request. For the kernel_context (and thus aliasing_ppgtt), it remains pinned at all times, as the kernel_context itself is pinned at all times.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
