From: John Harrison <John.C.Harrison@xxxxxxxxx> A static analyser was complaining about not checking for null pointers. However, the location of the complaint can only be reached in the first place if said pointer is non-null. Basically, if we are using a v69 GuC then the descriptor pool is guaranteed to be alocated at start of day or submission will be disabled with an ENOMEM error. And if we are using a later GuC that does not use a descriptor pool then the v69 submission function would not be called. So, not a possible null at that point in the code. Hence adding a GEM_BUG_ON(!ptr) to keep the tool happy.
