intel: Create a new drm_intel_bo offset64 field.
The existing 'offset' field is unfortunately typed as 'unsigned long',
which is unfortunately only 4 bytes with a 32-bit userspace.
Traditionally, the hardware has only supported 32-bit virtual addresses,
so even though the kernel uses a __u64, the value would always fit.
However, Broadwell supports 48-bit addressing. So with a 64-bit kernel,
the card virtual address may be too large to fit in the 'offset' field.
Ideally, we would change the type of 'offset' to be a uint64_t---but
this would break the libdrm ABI. Instead, we create a new 'offset64'
field to hold the full 64-bit value from the kernel, and store the
32-bit truncation in the existing 'offset' field, for compatibility.
