Chris Wilson <chris at chris-wilson.co.uk> writes:

> Sometimes we need to boost the priority of an in-flight request, which
> may lead to the situation where the second submission port then contains
> a higher priority context than the first and so we need to inject a
> preemption event. To do so we must always check inside
> execlists_dequeue() whether there is a priority inversion between the
> ports themselves as well as the head of the priority sorted queue, and we
> cannot just skip dequeuing if the queue is empty.
