If the driver is wedged, we skip idling the GPU. However, we may still
have a few requests still not retired following the wedging (since they
will be waiting for a background worker trying to acquire struct_mutex).
As we hold the struct_mutex, always do a quick request retirement in
order to flush the wedged path.

We cannot do this in i915_gem_set_wedged due not having the mutex?

Correct.

I think it should go in an else block of the !terminally_wedged block to
signify the alternative idling method for that case. And also to make
sure the !terminally_wedged case does not start relying on this extra
retire pass.

I liked the safety net and clarity of not making it conditional.

And I disliked the sweeping under the carpet potential of it. :)

Or alternative teach i915_gem_wait_for_idle how to handle the wedged
case and only make switching to kernel context dependant on
terminally_wedged status in i915_gem_suspend?

Right, it's the checks that actually worry here. Those depend on the gpu
being in a fairly sane state...

What checks? i915_terminally_wedged cannot be. Request retirement itself?

Tvrtko
