drm/i915: Fix RPS pointer passed from wait_ioctl to i915_wait_request
In commit 2e1b8730 [v4.2] Author: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Date: Mon Apr 27 13:41:22 2015 +0100 drm/i915: Convert RPS tracking to a intel_rps_client struct we converted the __i915_wait_request() to take a new intel_rps_client struct (rather than having to pass fake drm_i915_file_private structs). However, due to use of passing a void pointer, I didn't spot one callsite in wait-ioctl was passing the wrong pointer. Fwiw, the impact of this bug is zero. Along the rps path, we always first call list_empty(rps) which when we pass in the wrong pointer always evaluates to false and we return early and never chase the invalid pointers. The user visible impact is then wait-ioctl doesn't get the same waitboosting as the other interfaces (set-domain, throttle), which is a performance concern for the *very* few users of the wait interface. There is also a libdrm_intel patch to use the wait-ioctl for drm_intel_bo_wait_rendering() if anyone feels inclined to review libdrm_intel patches.
