On Evergreen/Redwood (and likely other UVD v1/v2 hardware), resume from
suspend intermittently fails the UVD ring test:

    radeon 0000:01:00.0: [drm] *ERROR* radeon: ring 5 test failed (0xCAFEDEAD)
    radeon 0000:01:00.0: failed initializing UVD (-22).

Cold boot always succeeds; resume succeeds only in about half of the cycles
(42 measured suspend/resume cycles on a Radeon HD 5650M: OK counts per
6-cycle run were 2, 3, 5, 6, 1, 5, 3). Once the ring test fails, UVD stays
dead for the rest of the session and hardware video decode silently falls
back to CPU.

The resume path runs the same full asic startup as cold boot
(evergreen_resume() -> evergreen_startup()), so the difference is the
hardware state at entry, not a skipped call. Field data shows the first
ring instance after resume is dead functionally, not by timeout: the ring
test fails fast and deterministically, and only a full stop+init cycle
revives the engine.

Fix this the way the Windows driver effectively does it: silently cycle
the engine once (clocks up, start, stop, 20 ms settle) before testing,
then run the init sequence in a retry loop - on failure of clock setup,
VCPU start or the ring test, fully stop UVD, let it settle for 20 ms and
try again (up to 3 attempts). Each retry logs the failing step and the
attempt number, which also makes future reports of this failure mode
self-diagnosing. The ring-test polling window is widened from 100 ms to
2000 ms as spare capacity; the early-exit poll keeps healthy hardware on
the fast path.

On the same machine the patched driver went 6/6 OK across repeated test
runs, with the warm-up absorbing the dead first instance and zero error
lines in dmesg.

v2: guard uvd_v1_0_stop() behind successful clock setup, per Sashiko AI
review - MMIO writes to an unclocked UVD block can cause a PCI bus master
abort and hard-hang the system.

v1 -> v2: keep the clock-setup result in a separate variable and only
call uvd_v1_0_stop() when clocks were actually raised (Sashiko AI review).
Also folded in the silent warm-up cycle and the wider ring-test window
validated in field testing since v1.
