If the gpu scheduler for a queue on a particular engine times out, you can be
pretty sure the engine has hung.  At that point you can check the current busy
status for the block (IP is_idle() callback).

hw_fini() IP callback.

Each IP has a soft reset (implemented via the IP soft_reset() callback), but
depending on the hang, in some cases, you may have to do a full GPU reset to
recover.  This is not a hw hang, it's a sw deadlock.

All asics support full GPU reset which is implemented via the SOC level
amdgpu_asic_funcs reset() callback.

We don't really care of the suspend fails or not.  See
amdgpu_device_gpu_recover() for the full sequence.

There was a deadlock in the dm code which has been fixed.  Please try a new
code base.  e.g.,
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/linux/log/?h=amd-staging-drm-next
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/linux/log/?h=drm-next-5.2-wip
