[PATCH] drm/amdgpu: fix ring test failure issue during s3 in vce 3.0

Wow, really good catch!

The underlying problem is most likely that VCE block is either power or 
clock gated and because of this the readptr read always returns zero.

Now amdgpu_ring_alloc() informs the power management code that the block 
is about to be used and so the gating is turned off.

Mhm, that is probably wrong at a hole bunch of other places, at least 
the UVD and VCN code comes to mind.

I agree with Leo that you should remove the original read (so to not 
read twice) and it would be realy nice if you could double check the 
other code (UVD/VCN) for similar problems as well.

Regards,
Christian.
