Hi Matthew,

Do you mean "run job B and free job A" ... "in parallel"?

I don't see why this cannot be done. One can have a work-item/thread
push jobs to hardware, while another post-processes them on a wakeup from
a driver interrupt, and frees them, and both of those run in parallel,
albeit any dependencies.
