This is the final version:

        if (use_mmio_flip(engine, obj, page_flip_flags)) {
                rq = i915_request_get(obj->last_write.request);

                ret = intel_pin_and_fence_fb_obj(dev, obj, rq);
                if (ret)
                        goto cleanup_rq;

                work->gtt_offset =
                        i915_gem_obj_ggtt_offset(obj) + 
intel_crtc->dspaddr_offset;

                ret = intel_queue_mmio_flip(intel_crtc, rq);
                if (ret)
                        goto cleanup_unpin;
        } else {
                struct intel_context *ctx = engine->default_context;
                if (obj->last_write.request)
                        ctx = obj->last_write.request->ctx;
                rq = intel_engine_alloc_request(engine, ctx);
                if (IS_ERR(rq)) {
                        ret = PTR_ERR(rq);
                        goto cleanup_pending;
                }

                ret = intel_pin_and_fence_fb_obj(dev, obj, rq);
                if (ret)
                        goto cleanup_rq;

                work->gtt_offset =
                        i915_gem_obj_ggtt_offset(obj) + 
intel_crtc->dspaddr_offset;

                ret = dev_priv->display.queue_flip(rq, intel_crtc, fb, obj,
                                                   page_flip_flags);
                if (ret)
                        goto cleanup_unpin;

                intel_mark_page_flip_active(intel_crtc);

                ret = i915_request_commit(rq);
                if (ret)
                        goto cleanup_unpin;
        }

which your suggestion would make

        do_mmio = use_mmio_flip(engine, obj, page_flip_flags);
        if (do_mmio) {
                rq = i915_request_get(obj->last_write.request);
        } else {
                struct intel_context *ctx = engine->default_context;
                if (obj->last_write.request)
                        ctx = obj->last_write.request->ctx;
                rq = intel_engine_alloc_request(engine, ctx);
                if (IS_ERR(rq)) {
                        ret = PTR_ERR(rq);
                        goto cleanup_pending;
                }
        ]

        ret = intel_pin_and_fence_fb_obj(dev, obj, rq);
        if (ret)
                goto cleanup_rq;

        work->gtt_offset =
                i915_gem_obj_ggtt_offset(obj) + intel_crtc->dspaddr_offset;

        if (do_mmio) {
                ret = intel_queue_mmio_flip(intel_crtc, rq);
        } else {
                ret = dev_priv->display.queue_flip(rq, intel_crtc, fb, obj,
                                                   page_flip_flags);
                if (ret == 0) {
                        intel_mark_page_flip_active(intel_crtc);
                        ret = i915_request_commit(rq);
                }
        }
        if (ret)
                goto cleanup_unpin;

Here, I definitely want to keep the allocated request tied to the
i915_request_commit(), so I favour the duplication in this case.

Unless I push the queue_flip tail down again, i.e.

        if (do_mmio)
                ret = intel_queue_mmio_flip(intel_crtc, rq);
        else
                ret = intel_queue_page_flip(rq, intel_crtc, fb, obj,
                                            page_flip_flags);
        if (ret)
                goto cleanup_unpin;

or push do_mmio into page_flip_flags and have a single function here?

        page_flip_flags |= use_mmio_flip(engine, obj, page_flip_flags);

        rq = intel_page_flip_alloc_request(engine, obj, page_flip_flags);
        if (IS_ERR(rq)) {
                ret = PTR_ERR(rq);
                goto cleanup_pending;
        }

        ret = intel_pin_and_fence_fb_obj(dev, obj, rq);
        if (ret)
                goto cleanup_rq;

        work->gtt_offset =
                i915_gem_obj_ggtt_offset(obj) + intel_crtc->dspaddr_offset;

        ret = intel_page_flip_queue(rq, intel_crtc, fb, obj, page_flip_flags);
        if (ret)
                goto cleanup_unpin;

Maybe, just now worrying about hiding too much magic behind the scenes.
