[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Don't unwedge if reset is disabled

When trying to reset a device with reset capability disabled or not
supported while rings are full of requests, it has been observed when
running in execlists submission mode that command stream buffer tail
tends to be incremented by apparently still running GPU regardless of
all requests being already cancelled and command stream buffer pointers
reset.  As a result, kernel panic on NULL pointer dereference occurs
when a trace_ports() helper is called with command stream buffer tail
incremented but request pointers being NULL during final
__intel_gt_set_wedged() operation called from intel_gt_reset().

Skip actual reset procedure if reset is disabled or not supported.
