IMO the patch title should be changed: which ctx are we checking while
waiting for response? Something like "check for ct enabled while waiting
for response"?

Also, I really don't like intel_guc_ct_enabled() being called in two
places. Is there a possibility that intel_guc_ct_enabled() can return false
in the first place (causing the wait to exit) and then return true in the
second place (so we don't return -ECANCELED)?

Is it possible to change the status of the request to something else from
intel_guc_ct_disable() (or wherever ct->enabled is set to false) rather
than introducing intel_guc_ct_enabled() checks here. Changing the status of
the request when CT goes down would cause the wait's to exit here. And then
we can check that special request status signifying CT went down?

Thanks.
