From: John Harrison <John.C.Harrison@xxxxxxxxx>
In execlist mode, context initialisation is deferred until first use of the
given context. This is because execlist mode has many more contexts than legacy
mode and many are never actually used. Previously, the initialisation commands
were written to the ring and tagged with some random request structure via the
OLR. This seemed to be causing a null pointer deference bug under certain
circumstances (BZ:40112).
This patch adds explicit request creation and submission to the deferred
initialisation code path. Thus removing any reliance on or randomness caused by
the OLR.
For: VIZ-5115
