[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915/execlists: Prevent GPU death on ELSP[1] promotion to idle context

In what seems remarkably similar to the w/a required to not reload an
idle context with HEAD==TAIL, it appears we must prevent the HW from
switching to an idle context in ELSP[1], while simultaneously trying to
preempt the HW to run another context and a continuation of the idle
context (which is no longer idle).

  process_csb: vecs0: cs-irq head=0, tail=1
  process_csb: vecs0: csb[1]: status=0x00000882:0x00000020
  trace_ports: vecs0: promote { 8b2:32!, 8c0:30 }
  trace_ports: vecs0: preempted { 8c0:30!, 0:0 }
  trace_ports: vecs0: submit { 8b8:32, 8c0:32 }
  process_csb: vecs0: cs-irq head=1, tail=2
  process_csb: vecs0: csb[2]: status=0x00000814:0x00000040
  trace_ports: vecs0: completed { 8b2:32!, 8c0:30 }
  process_csb: vecs0: cs-irq head=2, tail=5
  process_csb: vecs0: csb[3]: status=0x00000812:0x00000020
  trace_ports: vecs0: promote { 8b8:32!, 8c0:32 }
  trace_ports: vecs0: preempted { 8c0:30!, 0:0 }
  process_csb: vecs0: csb[4]: status=0x00000814:0x00000060
  trace_ports: vecs0: completed { 8b8:32!, 8c0:32 }
  process_csb: vecs0: csb[5]: status=0x00000818:0x00000020
  trace_ports: vecs0: completed { 8c0:32, 0:0 }
  process_csb: vecs0: ring:{start:0x00021000, head:03f8, tail:03f8, ctl:00000000, mode:00000200}
  process_csb: vecs0: rq:{start:00021000, head:03c0, tail:0400, seqno:8c0:32, hwsp:30},
  process_csb: vecs0: ctx:{start:00021000, head:03f8, tail:03f8},
  process_csb: process_csb:2449 GEM_BUG_ON("context completed before request")

Fortunately, we just so happen to have a semaphore in place to prevent
the ring HEAD from proceeding past the end of a request that we can use
to fix the HEAD in position as we reprogram ELSP.
