When using RCU lookup for the request, commit 0eafec6d ("drm/i915: Enable lockless lookup of request tracking via RCU"), we acknowledge that we may race with another thread that could have reallocated the request. In order for the first thread not to blow up, the second thread must not clear the request completed before overwriting it. In the RCU lookup, we allow for the engine/seqno to be replaced but we do not allow for it to be zeroed. The choice we make is to either add extra checking to the RCU lookup, or embrace the inherent races (as intended). It is more complicated as we need to manually clear everything we depend upon being zero initialised, but we benefit from not emiting the memset() to clear the entire frequently allocated structure (that memset turns up in throughput profiles). And at the same time, the lookup remains flexible for future adjustments. v2: Old style LRC requires another variable to be initialize. (The danger inherent in not zeroing everything.) v3: request->batch also needs to be cleared v4: signaling.tsk is no long used unset, but pid still exists Fixes: 0eafec6d ("drm/i915: Enable lockless lookup of request...")
