We were not very carefully checking to see if an older request on the engine was an earlier switch-to-kernel-context before deciding to emit a new switch. The end result would be that we could get into a permanent loop of trying to emit a new request to perform the switch simply to flush the existing switch. What we need is a means of tracking the completion of each timeline versus the kernel context, that is to detect if a more recent request has been submitted that would result in a switch away from the kernel context. To realise this, we need only to look in our syncmap on the kernel context and check that we have synchronized against all active rings. v2: Since all ringbuffer clients currently share the same timeline, we do have to use the gem_context to distinguish clients. As a bonus, include all the tracing used to debug the death inside suspend. v3: Test, test, test. Construct a selftest to exercise and assert the expected behaviour that multiple switch-to-contexts do not emit redundant requests.
