drm/i915/gt: Undo forced context restores after trivial preemptions
We may try to preempt the currently executing request, only to find that after unravelling all the dependencies that the original executing context is still the earliest in the topological sort and re-submitted back to HW (if we do detect some change in the ELSP that requires re-submission). However, due to the way we check for wrap-around during the unravelling, we mark any context that has been submitted just once (i.e. with the rq->wa_tail set, but the ring->tail earlier) as potentially wrapping and requiring a forced restore on resubmission. This was expected to be not a problem, as it was anticipated that most unwinding for preemption would result in a context switch and the few that did not would be lost in the noise. It did not take long for someone to find one particular workload where the cost of those extra context restores was measurable. However, since we know the wa_tail is of fixed size, and we know that a request must be larger than the wa_tail itself, we can safely maintain the check for request wrapping and check against a slightly future point in the ring that includes an expected wa_tail. (That is if the ring->tail is already set to rq->wa_tail, including another 8 bytes in the check does not invalidate the incremental wrap detection.) Fixes:8ab3a3812a
