Daniel Vetter 1f83fee08d drm/i915: clear up wedged transitions
We have two important transitions of the wedged state in the current
code:

- 0 -> 1: This means a hang has been detected, and signals to everyone
  that they please get of any locks, so that the reset work item can
  do its job.

- 1 -> 0: The reset handler has completed.

Now the last transition mixes up two states: "Reset completed and
successful" and "Reset failed". To distinguish these two we do some
tricks with the reset completion, but I simply could not convince
myself that this doesn't race under odd circumstances.

Hence split this up, and add a new terminal state indicating that the
hw is gone for good.

Also add explicit #defines for both states, update comments.

v2: Split out the reset handling bugfix for the throttle ioctl.

v3: s/tmp/wedged/ sugested by Chris Wilson. Also fixup up a rebase
error which prevented this patch from actually compiling.

v4: To unify the wedged state with the reset counter, keep the
reset-in-progress state just as a flag. The terminally-wedged state is
now denoted with a big number.

v5: Add a comment to the reset_counter special values explaining that
WEDGED & RESET_IN_PROGRESS needs to be true for the code to be
correct.

v6: Fixup logic errors introduced with the wedged+reset_counter
unification. Since WEDGED implies reset-in-progress (in a way we're
terminally stuck in the dead-but-reset-not-completed state), we need
ensure that we check for this everywhere. The specific bug was in
wait_for_error, which would simply have timed out.

v7: Extract an inline i915_reset_in_progress helper to make the code
more readable. Also annote the reset-in-progress case with an
unlikely, to help the compiler optimize the fastpath. Do the same for
the terminally wedged case with i915_terminally_wedged.
