Chris Wilson bc2477f7d3 drm/i915/execlists: Flush the CS events before unpinning
Inside the execlists submission tasklet, we often make the mistake of
assuming that everything beneath the request is available for use.
However, the submission and the request live on two separate timelines,
and the request contents may be freed from an early retirement before we
have had a chance to run the submission tasklet (think ksoftirqd). To
safeguard ourselves against any mistakes, flush the tasklet before we
unpin the context if execlists still has a reference to this context.

v2: Pull hw_context->active tracking into schedule_in and schedule_out.

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.
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.
