5.15-rc1 crashes with blank screen when booting up on two ThinkPads
using i915.  Bisections converge convincingly, but arrive at different
and surprising "culprits", none of them the actual culprit.

It is certainly surprising this patch crashed SNB and KBL.

How feasible would it be to make this code just not run when GuC is not used? Given the field it adds is called ce->guc_blocked it sounds like a natural and preferable thing to do... if possible.

netconsole (with init_netconsole() hacked to call i915_init() when
logging has started, instead of by module_init()) tells the story:

kernel BUG at drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_sw_fence.c:245!
with RSI: ffffffff814d408b pointing to sw_fence_dummy_notify().
I've been building with CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y, and that
function needs to be 4-byte aligned.

v2:
  (Jani Nikula)
   - Change BUG_ON to WARN_ON

However in this case the code would then go on and call into a wrong function offset which may be worse than a BUG_ON, no?

Hugh suggested __i915_sw_fence_call which I think would be the right thing to do.
