What? a266bf420060 was part of 5.4.0-rc7, so it's already in 5.4. And if you
read the commit message, you would see that the problem in question affects
Linus' tree.

You can break i915 in 5.6 by just adding a small delay:

diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gt/intel_ring.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gt/intel_ring.c

This is how I reproduced the race in question. I can't even reach the greeter on
my laptop with this, because i915 dies before that.
