My apologies. I'm new to requesting stable patches, but I thought
sending to the stable mailing lists would keep the proper folks in the
loop. Sorry about that.

The bug that the commit fixes has quite a long documentation trail:

[BAT execlists] Sporadic - gem_exec_suspend basic-s4 GPU hang after resume
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96526

I've had problems with that one and this one that is not fixed in 4.10.x stable:

[Regression BDW] kernel panic in Intel i915 module, complete system
freeze in 4.10-rc2
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99295

Thanks,
Eric
