No, I don't think there's one for pqueue, it was just being consistent.

Yeah, but the clear one I was thinking about is 

static bool hold_request(const struct i915_request *rq)
{
        struct i915_dependency *p;

        /*
         * If one of our ancestors is on hold, we must also be on hold,
         * otherwise we will bypass it and execute before it.
         */
        list_for_each_entry(p, &rq->sched.signalers_list, signal_link) {
                const struct i915_request *s =
                        container_of(p->signaler, typeof(*s), sched);

                if (s->engine != rq->engine)
                        continue;

                if (i915_request_on_hold(s))
                        return true;
        }

        return false;
}

where we check the rq->fence.flags which holds stale information.

Clear both for consistency, caught out once, may be caught out again on
the other.
