It might be false sharing due to a single workqueue, or a single-threaded
workqueue.

Essentially the lockdep annotations for work_struct track two things:
- dependencies against the specific work item
- dependencies against anything queued on that work queue, if you flush
  the entire queue, or if you flush a work item that's on a
  single-threaded queue.

Because if guc/host communication is inverted like this here, you have a
much bigger problem.

Note that if you pick a different workqueue for your guc work stuff then
you need to make sure that's all properly flushed on suspend and driver
unload.

It might also be that the reset work is on the wrong workqueue.

Either way, this must be fixed, because I've seen too many of these "it
never happens in practice" blow up, plus if your locking scheme is
engineered with quicksand forget about anyone ever understanding it.
