Don't check CT descriptor status, unless CONFIG_DRM_I915_DEBUG_GUC is set, before CT write / read as this could result in a read across the PCIe bus thus adding latency to every CT write / read. On well behavied systems this vaue should always read as zero. For some reason it doesn't the CT channel is broken and will eventually recover from a GT reset, albeit the GT reset will not be triggered immediately by seeing that descriptor status is non-zero.
