Chris Wilson 2ffe80aa44 drm/i915: Avoid unguarded reads from the request pointer
In commit 86aa7e760a ("drm/i915: Assert that the context-switch
completion matches our context") I added a read to the irq tasklet
handler that compared the on-chip status with that of our sw tracking,
using an unguarded read of the request pointer to get the context and
beyond. Whilst we hold a reference to the request, we do not hold
anything on the context and if we are unlucky it may be reaped from a
second thread retiring the request (since it may retire the request as
soon as the breadcrumb is complete, even before we finish processing the
context switch) as we try to read from the context pointer.

Avoid the racy read from underneath the request by storing the expected
result in the execlist_port[].

v2: Include commentary about port[].request being unprotected.

Fixes: 86aa7e760a ("drm/i915: Assert that the context-switch completion matches our context")

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
