drm/i915: Fix erroneous dereference of batch_obj inside reset_status As the rings may be processed and their requests deallocated in a different order to the natural retirement during a reset, /* Whilst this request exists, batch_obj will be on the * active_list, and so will hold the active reference. Only when this * request is retired will the the batch_obj be moved onto the * inactive_list and lose its active reference. Hence we do not need * to explicitly hold another reference here. */ is violated, and the batch_obj may be dereferenced after it had been freed on another ring. This can be simply avoided by processing the status update prior to deallocating any requests.
