This does indeed fix the problem of not being able to *re*initialise the 
GuC correctly after a hang/reset/reload cycle :) However I think the 
last line looks quite confusing, especially because of the mix of 
bitwise and logical operators (we have &, &&, and || all in one expression).

So I think it might be clearer if spelled out in two stages:

  {
         u32 val = I915_READ(GUC_STATUS);
+       u32 uk_val = val & GS_UKERNEL_MASK;
         *status = val;
-       return ((val & GS_UKERNEL_MASK) == GS_UKERNEL_READY ||
-               (val & GS_UKERNEL_MASK) == GS_UKERNEL_LAPIC_DONE);
+
+       /* Iff resuming from RC6, look for LAPIC_DONE */
+       if (val & GS_MIA_CORE_STATE)
+               if (uk_val == GS_UKERNEL_LAPIC_DONE)
+                       return true;
+
+       /* Otherwise just check whether the uKernel is READY */
+       return uk_val == GS_UKERNEL_READY;
  }

Other than that I'm quite happy with it, so either version gets a
