I pinged Chris about this. I do prefer the symmetry, and I think we
could have guc->enable_submission variable based on which
i915_guc_submission_init/fini() would be executed on. No conditionals
in the _init/_fini themselves. You can of course do the
enable_submission check at the beginning of i915_guc_submission_init
and _fini too, if that feels clearer for the upper level code flow.

If _init is called and succeeds, _fini needs to be called. If _init
fails, _fini is to never be called. The check outside or inside will
both adhere to that.

Regards, Joonas
