drm/i915: Prevent TLB error on first execution on SNB Long ago I found that I was getting sporadic errors when booting SNB, with the symptom being that the first batch died with IPEHR != *ACTHD, typically caused by the TLB being invalid. These magically disappeared if I held the forcewake during the entire ring initialisation sequence. (It can probably be shortened to a short critical section, but the whole initialisation is full of register writes and so we would be taking and releasing forcewake almost continually, and so holding it over the entire sequence will probably be a net win!) Note some of the kernels I encounted the issue already had the deferred forcewake release, so it is still relevant. I know that there have been a few other reports with similar failure conditions on SNB, I think such as References: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80913 v2: Wrap i915_gem_init_hw() with its own security blanket as we take that path following resume and reset.
