drm/i915/gt: Perform an arbitration check before busywaiting
During igt_reset_nop_engine, it was observed that an unexpected failed engine reset lead to us busywaiting on the stop-ring semaphore (set during the reset preparations) on the first request afterwards. There was no explicit MI_ARB_CHECK in this sequence as the presumption was that the failed MI_SEMAPHORE_WAIT would itself act as an arbitration point. It did not in this circumstance, so force it. This patch is based on the assumption that the MI_SEMAPHORE_WAIT failure to arbitrate is a rare Tigerlake bug, similar to the lite-restore vs semaphore issues previously seen in the CS. The explicit MI_ARB_CHECK should always ensure that there is at least one arbitration point in the request before the MI_SEMAPHORE_WAIT to trigger the IDLE->ACTIVE event. Upon processing that event, we will clear the stop-ring flag and release the semaphore from its busywait.
