[PATCH] drm/i915: Remove instructions to file a bug report.

[Matt Turner]

>From these instructions, users assume that /sys/class/drm/card0/error
contains all the information a developer needs to diagnose and fix a GPU
hang.

In fact it doesn't, and we have no tools for solving them (other than
stabbing in the dark). Most of the time the error state itself isn't
even useful because it just shows a hang on a PIPE_CONTROL or similar.

Until a time when the error state contains enough information to
actually solve a hang, stop telling users to file unsolvable bugs, and
instead rely on users who know where and how to file a good bug report
to find their own way there.

Maybe now's a good time to discuss what *would* be useful to put in the
error state for debugging hangs. The currently executing shader program
would be a great place to start.
