While running some tests on the scheduler patches with rpm enabled I came across a corruption in the ringbuffer, which was root-caused to the GPU being suspended while commands were being emitted to the ringbuffer. The access to memory was failing because the GPU needs to be awake when accessing stolen memory (where my ringbuffer was located). Since we have this constraint it looks like a sensible idea to check that we hold a refcount when we access the rungbuffer. v2: move the check from ring_begin to ringbuffer iomap time (Chris) v3: update comment (Chris) Cc: John Harrison <John.C.Harrison@Intel.com> Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Signed-off-by:
