drm: Ensure Proper Unload/Reload Order of MEI Modules for i915/Xe Driver
This update addresses the unload/reload sequence of MEI modules in relation to
the i915/Xe graphics driver. On platforms where the MEI hardware is integrated
with the graphics device (e.g., DG2/BMG), the MEI modules depend on the i915/Xe
driver. Conversely, on newer platforms like CLS, where the MEI hardware is
separate, this dependency does not exist.
The changes introduced ensure that MEI modules are unloaded and reloaded in the
correct order based on platform-specific dependencies. This is achieved by adding
a MODULE_SOFTDEP directive to the i915 and Xe module code.
These changes enhance the robustness of MEI module handling across different hardware
platforms, ensuring that the i915/Xe driver can be cleanly unloaded and reloaded
without issues.
