The problem is that if an application requests the GL_LOSE_CONTEXT_ON_RESET strategy, an incorrect reset counter returned by the kernel will automatically kill the OpenGL context (by setting the no-op dispatch), so it's a pretty serious issue and the kernel should return correct values regardless of the state of GPU reset there. If the kernel returns an incorrect reset counter, we need a version bump for the fix. Marek
