That's what msm does (with no extra CAPS check AFAICT), and the
freedreno driver can already create high priority queues if
PIPE_CONTEXT_HIGH_PRIORITY is passed. Not saying that's okay to allow
userspace to tweak the priority, but if that's a problem, other drivers
are in trouble too ;-).

Same here, I see no limit on the number of queues the msm driver can
create. I can definitely pick an arbitrary limit of 2^16 (or 2^8 if
2^16 is too high) if you prefer, but I feel like there's plenty of ways
to force kernel allocations already, like allocating a gazillion of 4k
GEM buffers (cgroup can probably limit the total amount of memory
allocated, but you'd still have all gem-buf meta data in kernel memory).

Sure, I can do that.
