When the intel_context structure contains NULL,
it raises a NULL pointer dereference error in drm_info().

v2:
    - return drm_info to separate condition
v3:
    - create separate condition which generate string if intel_context exist
v4:
    - rollback and add check intel_context in log condition

But now you don't get a message when there is a request without the context
pointer. Which can clearly happen because otherwise you wouldn't have hit a
null pointer dereference in the first place.
do we need the guc_id at all?

Andi
Huh?

Do you need any debug output at all? No. The driver will still work without it. However trying to debug problems because significantly more difficult. When using GuC submission, the guc_id is the unique identifier that lets you track a context/submission through the entire system. When tracking through H2G or G2H messaging or in the GuC log itself, the guc_id is the only identifier available.
