I've found at least 1 huk I was looking for in patch 3. The other is in
reset_and_wakeup, and I think it's better to change the control flow there
differently. See my "[PATCH] drm/i915: Fix up -EIO ABI per igt/gem_eio"
for what I think should be changed around terminally_wedged() calls if you
drop the terminal state from reset_in_progress().
