I don't think so for a few reasons.
The job and hw fence are different structures (also different allocs too)
for a reason. The job referenced until it is complete (hw fence is
signaled) and the free_job is called. This reference is needed for the
TDR to work properly and also some reset flows too. Also in Xe some of
things done in free_job cannot be from an IRQ context, hence calling
this from the scheduler worker is rather helpful.
The HW fence can live for longer as it can be installed in dma-resv
slots, syncobjs, etc... If the job and hw fence are combined now we
holding on the memory for the longer and perhaps at the mercy of the
user. We also run the risk of the final put being done from an IRQ
context which again wont work in Xe as it is currently coded. Lastly 2
jobs from the same scheduler could do the final put in parallel, so
rather than having free_job serialized by the worker now multiple jobs
are freeing themselves at the same time. This might not be an issue but
adds another level of raceyness that needs to be accounted for. None of
this sounds desirable to me.
FWIW what you suggesting sounds like how the i915 did things
(i915_request and hw fence in 1 memory alloc) and that turned out to be
a huge mess. As rule of thumb I generally do the opposite of whatever
the i915 did.
