Subject: [PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 074/216] drm/i915: Only warn the first time we attempt to mmio whilst suspended

3.16.7-ckt4 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Chris Wilson <chris@...is-wilson.co.uk>

commit 2b387059817fd100cddc5a97118d63e3f3fade74 upstream.

In all likelihood we will do a few hundred errnoneous register
operations if we do a single invalid register access whilst the device
is suspended. As each instance causes a WARN, this floods the system
logs and can make the system unresponsive.

The warning was first introduced in
commit b2ec142cb0101f298f8e091c7d75b1ec5b809b65
Author: Paulo Zanoni <paulo.r.zanoni@...el.com>
Date:   Fri Feb 21 13:52:25 2014 -0300

    drm/i915: call assert_device_not_suspended at gen6_force_wake_work

and despite the claims the WARN is still encountered in the wild today.
