The only reason for this really is the i915_gem_engines->fence callback engines_notify(), which exists purely as a fairly funky reference counting scheme for that. Otherwise all other callers are from process context, and generally fairly benign locking context.
There is reset which definitely isn't process context.
gpu reset runs in process context. The tasklet context is the engines_notify I'm talking about above.
I haven't looked very deeply but please double check the path from execlists_submission_tasklet -> execlists_reset -> intel_engine_reset -> __intel_engine_reset -> execlists_reset_rewind -> execlists_reset_csb -> execlists_reset_active -> __i915_request_reset -> mark_guilty -> i915_gem_context_put.
Thanks for pointing this out, I'll add it to the commit message.
More stuff to fix, yay.
Otherwise I did not really get from the commit message is this patch fixing an existing problem or preparing something for the future. If the former then as I wrote above - I am pretty sure there are call sites from the tasklet already.

Unfortunately untangling that requires some major surgery, and we have a few i915_gem_context reference counting bugs that need fixing, and they blow in the current hardirq calling context, so we need a stop-gap measure.
I guess this para wasn't clear, but subsequent patches fix the refcount bugs and need this prep patch here.
So up to where in the series are those fixes and where other stuff follows? Worth spliting and having cover letters perhaps? Is the fixing part applicable to the existing code or only comes to play with the syncobj single timeline changes?
There's Fixes: lines. One is timeline syncobj, the other is 2 years old.
So first two patches are standalone and fix the immediate bug? Could you describe the composition and doings of the series in a cover letter so it's possible to have an overview of chunk of work tackled?

Put a FIXME comment in when this should be removable again.
