Chris Wilson 64b80085dd drm/i915/execlists: Remove the priority "optimisation"
Originally we set the priority to max upon inserting the request into
the execlists queue (and removing it from the scheduler lists). We could
then use the prio==INT_MAX as a shortcut within execlists_schedule() to
detect the end of the dependency chain. Since commit 1f181225f8
("drm/i915/execlists: Keep request->priority for its lifetime") this is
no longer true as we use the request completion as an indicator the
schedule dependency chain is complete instead. (This allows us to then
reschedule requests even when its context is in flight.) However, this
makes the GEM_BUG_ON() inside execlists_schedule() racy as we may change
the rq->prio at the same time. As the assertion is useful, let's keep
the assertion and remove the micro-optimisation.

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.
