The GSC FW load is a slow process (up to 250 ms), so we defer it to a dedicated worker to avoid stalling the init flow for that long. However, we currently start this worker before the HW init is complete, so there is a chance that the GSC loading code submits to the HW before the engine initialization has completed. We can easily fix this by starting the thread later in the gt_resume flow. From this later spot, the GSC code can still race with the default submission code; we functionally don't care who wins the race (the GSC load doesn't need any state), but since the whole point of the separate worker is to make the main thread faster, we prefer the default submission code to run first. Therefore, make an exception for driver probe and only and start the gsc load from uc_init_late.

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.
