Commit99e48bf98d("drm/i915: Lock out execlist tasklet while peeking inside for busy-stats") added a tasklet_disable call in busy stats enabling, but we failed to understand that the PMU enable callback runs as an hard IRQ (IPI). Consequence of this is that the PMU enable callback can interrupt the execlists tasklet, and will then deadlock when it calls intel_engine_stats_enable->tasklet_disable. To fix this, I realized it is possible to move the engine stats enablement and disablement to PMU event init and destroy hooks. This allows for much simpler implementation since those hooks run in normal context (can sleep). v2: Extract engine_event_destroy.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
