Michał Winiarski 5028a4fb7d drm/i915/guc: Fill preempt context once at init time
Since we're inhibiting context save of preempt context, we're no longer
tracking the position of HEAD/TAIL. With GuC, we're adding a new
breadcrumb for each preemption, which means that the HW will do more and
more breadcrumb writes. Eventually the ring is filled, and we're
submitting the preemption context with HEAD==TAIL==0, which won't result
in breadcrumb write, but will trigger hangcheck instead.
Instead of writing a new preempt breadcrumb for each preemption, let's
just fill the ring once at init time (which also saves a couple of
instructions in the tasklet).

v2: Assert that context save restore is inhibited, don't assert on ring
    alignment. (Chris)
v3: Cleanup checkpatch.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
