Yeah that's the exact same thing I've chased with my dma_fence
annotations, but thus far zero to none interested in getting it sorted. I
think it'd be good to have some cross-driver agreement on how this should
be solved before someone just charges ahead ...

Can't we reinsert it before we restart the scheduler thread? It might need
a separate list for that due to the lockless queue tricks. Or am I
thinking about the wrong kind of "we lost the job"?
