Hi Felix,
Well it's really up to Christian and Alex but I'd keep an eye on this since it'll cause issues with embedded down the road.
I happen to have a CZ system so I could possibly try and bisect 4.11/4.12 and see if there's any stable points for you guys. Is there a short and simple KFD setup I can install/run to test it? Or is simply loading a KFD merged/rebased kernel enough to cause the hang (and thus I guess a bisect doesn't make sense).
Cheers,
Tom

With the next change that adds programming of RLC_CP_SCHEDULERS it's a
VM fault and hard hang during boot, just after HWS initialization.
Without that change it's only a MEC hang when the first application
tries to create a user mode queue.
Regards,
Felix
