The referenced HSW-specific gitlab issue was closed in 2022 and hadn't
been active for a while before that.  This patch from Chris was
originally posted as an attachment on that gitlab issue asking if it
helped, but nobody responded that it did/didn't improve the situation so
it may or may not have been relevant to what was originally reported
in that ticket.

Looking in cibuglog, the most similar failures I see today are the ones
getting associated with issue #12310.  I.e.,

  <3> [220.415493] i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] *ERROR* failed to set rcs0
  head to zero ctl 00000000 head 00001db8 tail 00000000 start 7fffa000

Are you trying to solve that CI issue or is there a different
user-submitted report somewhere that this patch is trying to address?
