i915 is currently doing Full GPU reset at the end of suspend followed by
GuC suspend. This reset bypasses the GuC. We need to tell the GuC to
suspend before we do a direct intel_gpu_reset, Otherwise the gpu state will
no longer match the GuC's expectations and its suspend will not be
successful. With this change, i915 suspends GuC after suspending GEM and
before doing Full GPU reset.

My understanding is that reloading GuC firmware after each resume is a
major bottleneck in resume time, and we instead should be telling GuC
to suspend and not reset the GPU, at most only reset the engines.

If this is possible, then yes, it'd definitely be preferable. If not,
then doing the GuC + HuC loading asynchronously on resume would be preferable.
Anusha mentioned working on asynchronous loading, hence added to CC.


Kind regards, David
