Avoid exposing a partially constructed context by deferring the
list_add() from the initial construction to the end of registration.
Otherwise, if we peek into the list of contexts from inside debugfs, we
may see the partially constructed context and change down some dangling
incomplete pointers.

that.

Are you sure about the fixes as it is not the commit that
actually introduces the registration into context.list?

For me it looks like it is a4e7ccdac38e.

The one I picked was where we started adding more context setup after
the final step of list_add in __create_context(). More apropos would be
3aa9945a528e ("drm/i915: Separate GEM context construction and registration to userspace")
in the same kernel.

In the other direction, we have
f6e8aa387171 ("drm/i915: Report the number of closed vma held by each context in debugfs")
where we start using the contexts.list in debugfs.

In a4e7ccdac38e we are only moving the list_add(&ctx->link) around in
__create_context().

Ok, thanks for clearing that out.

The i915_perf iteration seems to not get hurt either so,
