[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 08/17 v2] drm/i915: Defer default hardware context initialisation until first open

In order to fully initialise the default contexts, we have to execute
batchbuffer commands on the GPU engines. But in the case of GuC-based
batch submission, we can't do that until any required firmware has
been loaded, which may not be possible during driver load, because the
filesystem(s) containing the firmware may not be mounted until later.

Therefore, we now allow the first call to the firmware-loading code to
return -EAGAIN to indicate that it's not yet ready, and that it should
be retried when the device is first opened from user code, by which
time we expect that all required filesystems will have been mounted.
The late-retry code will then re-attempt to load the firmware if the
early attempt failed.

If the late retry fails, the current open-in-progress will fail, but
the recovery code will disable GuC submission and reset the GPU and
driver. The next open will therefore be in non-GuC mode, and will be
allowed to complete even if the GuC cannot be loaded or used.
