The crash happens here in i915_gem_entervt_ioctl() :
3659 BUG_ON(!list_empty(&dev_priv->mm.active_list));
3660 BUG_ON(!list_empty(&dev_priv->mm.flushing_list));
-> 3661 BUG_ON(!list_empty(&dev_priv->mm.inactive_list));
3662 mutex_unlock(&dev->struct_mutex);
Quoting Chris :
"That BUG_ON there is silly and can simply be removed. The check is to
verify that no batches were submitted to the kernel whilst the UMS/GEM
client was suspended - to which the BUG_ONs are a crude approximation.
Furthermore, the checks are too late, since it means we attempted to
program the hardware whilst it was in an invalid state, the BUG_ONs are
the least of your concerns at that point."
Note that this regression has been introduced in
