[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v2 21/21] drm/i915: Unify GPU resets upon shutdown

As we initialise engines, then contexts, ideally we want to unwind in
the opposite order: contexts then engines. Until now, the engines and
contexts were tightly coupled (the engine owned the default context)
preventing the "natural ordering" during shutdown. Now that execlists
merely holds a reference, as does the device for the kernel context, we
can relax the ordering constraint upon unload.

In doing so, we can reveal the true goal of this patch: always reset the GPU
back to its default starting condition before shutdown. It is known that
to disable the current legacy context we have to reset the GPU. The same
is true when the GPU has been enabled for execlists. However, we do each
reset separately, but functionally they are the same: Before shutting
down, we need to reset the GPU so that the next hardware user finds the
GPU in its expected default settings.

This unifies the resets added in a647828afc (drm/i915: Also perform gpu
reset under execlist mode) and 8e96d9c4d9 (drm/i915: reset the GPU on
context fini).
