Daniel Vetter 7e3b8737e7 drm/i915: dump even more into the error_state
Chris Wilson and me have again stared at funny error states and it's
been pretty clear from the start that something was seriously amiss.
The seqnos last seen by the cpu were a few hundred behind those that
the gpu could have possibly emitted last before it died ...

Chris now tracked it down (hopefully, definit verdict's still out),
but in hindsight we'd have found the bug by simply dumping the cpu
side tracking of the ring head and tail registers.

Fix this and prevent an identical time-waster in the future.

Because the hangs always involved semaphores in one way or another,
we've tried to dump the mbox registers, but couldn't find any
inconsistencies. Still, dump them too.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.


Documentation on the DRI is available from:
