Lets see:

$ grep intel_gt_is_wedged . -r | wc -l
55

$ grep test_bit.*I915_WEDGED, . -r
./gt/intel_gt.h:                   !test_bit(I915_WEDGED, &gt->reset.flags));
./gt/intel_gt.h:        return unlikely(test_bit(I915_WEDGED, &gt->reset.flags));
./gt/intel_reset.c:     if (test_bit(I915_WEDGED, &gt->reset.flags))
./gt/intel_reset.c:     if (test_bit(I915_WEDGED, &gt->reset.flags))
./gt/intel_reset.c:     if (!test_bit(I915_WEDGED, &gt->reset.flags))
./gt/intel_reset.c:     if (!test_bit(I915_WEDGED, &gt->reset.flags))
./gt/uc/intel_guc_submission.c:              test_bit(I915_WEDGED, &guc_to_gt(guc)->reset.flags))) {

So outside the components which own the flag only GuC goes direct therefore you might know better if there is a special reason for that.

The code there looks like this:

	/* Reset called during driver load or during wedge? */
	if (unlikely(!guc_submission_initialized(guc) ||
		     test_bit(I915_WEDGED, &guc_to_gt(guc)->reset.flags)))
		return;

Perhaps that check and then one you are adding could even be partly the same?

The grep above suggests it should be safe. And looking at the assert it seems to check if someone set the fatal wedge bit without setting the "normal" wedge eg. setting it directly bypassing the helper. So should be fine.
