In discussing this patch with Daniel, I made the mistake of reading that
as i915_gem_get_next_request_seqno() instead of get_seqno(). I'd suggest
the patch makes that change and hide the ugly ring->o_l_r. Then since we
do i915_gem_get_next_request_seqno() both here and in the caller, it
becomes much clearer that we are able to remove it.

Daniel, apologies for the confusion!
