[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915/gt: Ignore error capturing a closed context

To capture a context after a gpu hang, we suspend the request and then
resume its execution afterwards. If the context is already closed, we
can assume that no one is interested in the result, but instead we are
trying to terminate execution quickly as part of a forced-preemption.
In which case, do not waste time in suspending the request, capturing
the error, and just cancel it instead.

Testcase: igt/gem_ctx_persistence/many-contexts
