Not exactly. Move 'guc->submission_state.stopped' (and helpers in
xe_guc_submit.c) to the GT level and have both CT and GuC submission use
those functions.

See xe_guc_submit_reset_prepare - wake_up_all(&guc->ct.wq). This wakes
up all waiters in xe_guc_submit.c. So after moving
'guc->submission_state.stopped' to GT layer, we'd call down into the
lower layers which will wake up any waiters. We'd need to call
wake_up_all on guc->ct.wq & ct->g2h_fence_wq or maybe just drop the
later.

See above. This would moving 'guc->submission_state.stopped' clearing to
the GT level.
Hopefully this reshuffle isn't too painful but this seems to the correct
way to do this.
