Matt Roper 29b6f88d60 drm/i915: Try to detect sudden loss of MMIO access
In rare circumstances bugs in PCI programming, broken BIOS, or failing
hardware can cause the CPU to lose access to the MMIO BAR on dgfx
platforms.  This is a pretty catastrophic failure since all register
reads come back with values of 0xFFFFFFFF.  Let's check for this special
case while doing our usual checks for unclaimed registers; the FPGA_DBG
register we use for those checks on modern platforms has some unused
bits that will always read back as 0 when things are behaving properly;
we can use them as canaries to detect when MMIO itself has suddenly
broken and try to print a more informative error message in the logs.

v2: Let the detection function still return 'true' if we've lost our
    MMIO access.  We'll still get an extra false positive message about
    an unclaimed register access, but we'll still honor the 'mmio_debug'
    limit and not spam the log.  (Lucas)

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
