[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 10/19] drm/i915/execlists: Assert there are no simple cycles in the dependencies

[Chris Wilson]

The dependency chain must be an acyclic graph. This is checked by the
swfence, but for sanity, also do a simple check that we do not corrupt
our list iteration in execlists_schedule() by a shallow dependency
cycle.
