There was a report of error captures occurring without any hung
context being indicated despite the capture being initiated by a 'hung
context notification' from GuC. The problem was not reproducible.
However, it is possible to happen if the context in question has no
active requests. For example, if the hang was in the context switch
itself then the breadcrumb write would have occurred and the KMD would
see an idle context.

In the interests of attempting to provide as much information as
possible about a hang, it seems wise to include the engine info
regardless of whether a request was found or not. As opposed to just
prentending there was no hang at all.

So update the error capture code to always record engine information
if a context is given. Which means updating record_context() to take a
context instead of a request (which it only ever used to find the
context anyway). And split the request agnostic parts of
intel_engine_coredump_add_request() out into a seaprate function.

v2: Remove a duplicate 'if' statement (Umesh) and fix a put of a null
pointer.
v3: Tidy up request locking code flow (Tvrtko)

Shouldn't this print be inside the "else if" case below? otherwise if we don't have a rq at all we won't see it.
The intention was that the message is specifically for the case where a request exists but is being ignored. It is obvious when looking at the capture if no request was found - there just isn't one in there. But there is no way to distinguish that case from the situation where a request was found but just was not considered 'active'. Hence wanting to add a dmesg log instead.

Could pull the better message in from the next patch to this one to make it more clear - "Got hung context on %s with active request %lld:%lld [0x%04X] not yet started".

Are you keeping this outside the "if (capture)" below to make sure we consume the GuC engine capture even if we fail to produce the error state? if so, a comment might be useful.
Yeah, hadn't really noticed that the original version was effectively leaking the GuC capture in the case of a failure. The buffer would overflow and discard the oldest entries eventually. But it seems better to deliberately free the buffer if the related capture is done whether the capture worked or not.

Can add a comment to the patch description about it.

John.
