Chris Wilson b1339ecac6 drm/i915/execlists: Always force a context reload when rewinding RING_TAIL
If we rewind the RING_TAIL on a context, due to a preemption event, we
must force the context restore for the RING_TAIL update to be properly
handled. Rather than note which preemption events may cause us to rewind
the tail, compare the new request's tail with the previously submitted
RING_TAIL, as it turns out that timeslicing was causing unexpected
rewinds.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
