Quoting Michal Wajdeczko (2018-02-20 22:57:10)
Since commit 6ca9a2beb54a ("drm/i915: Unwind i915_gem_init() failure")
we believed that we correctly handle all errors encountered during
GuC initialization, including special one that indicates request to
run driver with disabled GPU submission (-EIO).
Unfortunately since commit 121981fafe69 ("drm/i915/guc: Combine
enable_guc_loading|submission modparams") we stopped using that
error code to avoid unwanted fallback to execlist submission mode.
In result any GuC initialization failure was treated as non-recoverable
error leading to driver load abort, so we could not even read related
GuC error log to investigate cause of the problem.
Fix that by always returning -EIO on uC hardware related failure.
v2: don't allow -EIO from uc_init
don't call uc_fini[_misc] on -EIO
mark guc fw as failed on hw init failure
prepare uc_fini_hw to run after earlier -EIO

Whilst thinking about this, do you want to disable (or rather prevent
setup of) guc submission if the driver is already wedged?
We setup GuC submission in intel_uc_init_hw() and just before we call
it from i915_gem_init_hw() we already have a check for wedged driver.
So maybe we don't want to add redundant guard ?
