The engine hw_id is only used by RING_FAULT_REG(), which is not used
by GRAPHICS_VER >= 8. We did use hw_id on recent platforms to set
the engine's guc_id, but that is not the case anymore since
commit c784e5249e77 ("drm/i915/guc: Update to use firmware v49.0.1"):
now we only use class and id information to generate guc_id.
We tend to keep adding new defines just to be consistent, but let's try
to remove them and let them defined to 0 for engines that only exist on
gen8+ platforms.
v2: Reword commit message and add information about when we stopped
using hw_id (Matt Roper)

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.
