Yes but final part of the reset when GuC is enabled, is not in any of 
those and is not even called from i915_gem_reset. It happens later via 
i915_gem_init_hw in i915_guc_submission_enable.

I was wondering if that is the most logical way of doing it - does it 
belong with the GEM reset, or the hardware reset?

For example could we, for GuC, not use reset_common_ring but add 
guc_reset_engine (yes, why did you name it ring when we went to engines?).

But I see that the ordering of operations would make it very 
problematic, since GuC is not setup until later following a reset.

So it all becomes very complicated and since it also predates this patch 
it doesn't matter. Just confused me a little bit, and probably will 
again in the future. :)

So..
