Chris.

Can these patches be reviewed without the tests or are they blocked waiting for the tests.

Are the patches acceptable?

Thanks,
Peter.

Allow for the MOCS to be programmed for all engines.
Currently we program the MOCS when the first render batch
goes through. This works on most platforms but fails on
platforms that do not run a render batch early,
i.e. headless servers. The patch now programs all initialised engines
on init and the RCS is programmed again within the initial batch. This
is done for predictable consistency with regards to the hardware
context.

Hardware context loading sets the values of the MOCS for RCS
and L3CC. Programming them from within the batch makes sure that
the render context is valid, no matter what the previous state of
the saved-context was.

v2: posted correct version to the mailing list.
v3: moved programming to within engine->init_hw() (Chris Wilson)
v4: code formatting and white-space changes. (Chris Wilson)

So testcase?

Execute a bunch of MI_STORE_REGISTER_MEM on the various rings in a fresh
context each time and confirm the ABI for the first N locations.

Repeat across suspend/resume (i.e. make sure the context image maintain
the register state). Then verify that freshly constructed contexts also
have the correct settings after resume.
