[PATCH v2 4/8] hw/display/apple-gfx: Implements texture syncing for non-UMA GPUs

[Phil Dennis-Jordan]

Renderable Metal textures are handled differently depending on
whether the GPU uses a unified memory architecture (no physical
distinction between VRAM and system RAM, CPU and GPU share the
memory bus) or not. (Traditional discrete GPU with its own VRAM)

In the discrete GPU case, textures must be explicitly
synchronised to the CPU or the GPU before use after being
modified by the other. In this case, we sync after the PV
graphics framework has rendered the next frame into the
texture using the GPU so that we can read out its contents using
the CPU. This fixes the issue where the guest screen stayed
black on AMD Radeon GPUs.
