This is shielded from user space in the following manner,
1) amdgpu_ctx_priority_is_valid() is called from amdgpu_ctx_ioctl() and
   if amdgpu_ctx_priority_is_valid() returns false, we set the priority to NORMAL.
   See the 2nd patch.
2) It is also called from amdgpu_ctx_priority_permit(), which is called
   from amdgpu_ctx_init() which is called from amdgpu_ctx_alloc() which
   is called from amdgpu_ctx_ioctl(), _after_ the call described above,
   and thus priority is now NORMAL.

Plus I'm typing this on a running system with 6.6.0 + those two patches.

User space can send us down UNSET, but we set it to NORMAL.

Can I get an R-B?
