As I mentioned before I'm not touching the existing ordering. As for the
newly added calls the unregister must be done before calling
intel_uncore_forcewake_reset() to make sure that the
i915_pmic_bus_access_notifier() has put any forcewakes it may hold. Note
this is ensured to happen on unregister as iosf_mbi_unregister_pmic_bus_access_notifier
waits for the bus to be idle before unregistering the notifier
(in a race free manner of course).

Likewise he iosf_mbi_register_pmic_bus_access_notifier() call is
done at the only possible spot, it must be done afer
__intel_uncore_early_sanitize and I added a WARN_ON to get a traceback
and the "timed out waiting for forcewake ack request" errors this patch
fixes are triggered (on suspend/resume) from i915_check_and_clear_faults().

Note tagorereddy was seeing these under different circumstances,
this is just the code-path I hit in my tests.

So we cannot just do a iosf_mbi_punit_acquire around the
i915_check_and_clear_faults() call, there are many other places
where a forcewake is done and we could potentially race.

OK, how about:

                 /*
                  * forcewake all now to make sure that we don't need to do a
                  * forcewake later which on systems where this notifier gets
                  * called requires the punit to access to the shared pmic i2c
                  * bus, which will be busy after this notification, leading to:
                  * "render: timed out waiting for forcewake ack request."
                  * errors.
                  */
