In the course of discovering and closing many races with context closure and execbuf submission, since commit 61231f6bd056 ("drm/i915/gem: Check that the context wasn't closed during setup") we started checking that the context was not closed by another userspace thread during the execbuf ioctl. In doing so we cancelled the inflight request (by telling it to be skipped), but kept reporting success since we do submit a request, albeit one that doesn't execute. As the error is known before we return from the ioctl, we can report the error we detect immediately, rather than leave it on the fence status. With the immediate propagation of the error, it is easier for userspace to handle.
