drm/i915: Register engines early to avoid type confusion
Commit 1ec23ed7 ("drm/i915: Use uabi engines for the default engine map") switched from using for_each_engine() to for_each_uabi_engine() to iterate over the user engines. While this seems to be a sensible change, it's only safe to do when the engines are actually chained using the rb-tree structure which is not the case during early driver initialization where it can be either a lock-less list or regular double-linked list. In fact, the modesetting initialization code may end up calling default_engines() through the fb helper code while the engines list is still llist_node-based: i915_driver_probe() -> intel_display_driver_probe() -> intel_fbdev_init() -> drm_fb_helper_init() -> drm_client_init() -> drm_client_open() -> drm_file_alloc() -> i915_driver_open() -> i915_gem_open() -> i915_gem_context_open() -> i915_gem_create_context() -> default_engines() Using for_each_uabi_engine() in default_engines() is therefore wrong, as it would try to interpret the llist as rb-tree, making it find no engine at all, as the rb_left and rb_right members will still be NULL, as they haven't been initialized yet. To fix this type confusion register the engines earlier and at the same time reduce the amount of code that has to deal with the intermediate llist state.
