From: Jeff McGee <jeff.mcgee@xxxxxxxxx> If GuC firmware performs an engine reset while that engine had a preemption pending, it will set the terminated attribute bit on our preemption stage descriptor.

It wants to make sure the preempt- to-idle work doesn't run when scheduling resumes, and uses this bit to inform its scheduler and presumably us as well. Our job is to clear it for the next preemption after reset, otherwise that and future preemptions will never complete. We'll just clear it every time.

I looked around and yes, the firmware will set the terminated bit in the stage_desc of the preempt client if it had a pending preemption request. No harm in clearing it unconditionally.
