If two requests are on the same ring, they are explicitly ordered by the
HW. So, a submission fence is sufficient to ensure ordering when using
the new GuC submission interface. Conversely, if two requests share a
timeline and are on the same physical engine but different context this
doesn't ensure ordering on the new GuC submission interface. So, a
completion fence needs to be used to ensure ordering.

Why is this unlock() being dropped here?

This condition in the BUG_ON is not a new requirement introduced by the changes below, right? just want to make sure I'm not missing anything.

Would it be worth adding an engine flag instead of checking which back-end is in use? I915_ENGINE_IS_FIFO or something. Not a blocker.
