Other than the question about READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE, I am not sure I 
understand what's broken in the locking logic here. Can you please add 
some description? thanks

This is an improvement that we can add and eventually, we can make this 
a GuC specific vfunc. Doing so may also remove the 
COPS_RUNTIME_ACTIVE_TOTAL option that I added to GuC specific context 
ops.

context pinning logic needs to be separated for this (ping) path vs. the 
query path - intel_context_get_total_runtime_ns().

intel_context_pin can sleep and we are not allowed to sleep in this path 
- intel_context_get_total_runtime_ns(), however we can sleep in the ping 
   worker path, so ideally we want to separate it out for the 2 paths.

For long running contexts and frequenct queries, calling this ^ when a 
context is active does not add value. I would just call it in the else 
like before.

Makes sense. Earlier it was a rmw, now it's just a write to 
ce->stats.runtime.start_gt_clk.

return ce->stats.runtime.total + active;

and then drop the local copy of total by bringing back the else{}.

 From where lrc_update_runtime_locked is being called, I would assume 
that the context is already pinned (until unpin_guc_id is called).
