[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915/huc: bump timeout for delayed load and reduce print verbosity

[Daniele Ceraolo Spurio]

We're observing sporadic HuC delayed load timeouts in CI, due to mei_pxp
binding completing later than we expected. HuC is still still loaded
when the bind occurs, but in the meantime i915 has started allowing
submission to the VCS engines even if HuC is not there.
In most of the cases I've observed, the timeout was due to the
init/resume of another driver between i915 and mei hitting errors and
thus adding an extra delay, but HuC was still loaded before userspace
could submit, because the whole resume process time was increased by the
delays.

Given that there is no upper bound to the delay that can be introduced
by other drivers, I've reached the following compromise with the media
team:

1) i915 is going to bump the timeout to 5s, to reduce the probability
of reaching it. We still expect HuC to be loaded before userspace
starts submitting, so increasing the timeout should have no impact on
normal operations, but in case something weird happens we don't want to
stall video submissions for too long.

2) The media driver will cope with the failing submissions that manage
to go through between i915 init/resume complete and HuC loading, if any
ever happen. This could cause a small corruption of video playback
immediately after a resume (we should be safe on boot because the media
driver polls the HUC_STATUS ioctl before starting submissions).

Since we're accepting the timeout as a valid outcome, I'm also reducing
the print verbosity from error to notice.
