If we have a set of active engines marked as being non-persistent, we
lose track of those if the user replaces those engines with
I915_CONTEXT_PARAM_ENGINES. As part of our uABI contract is that
non-persistent requests are terminated if they are no longer being
tracked by the user's context (in order to prevent a lost request
causing an untracked and so unstoppable GPU hang), we need to apply the
same context cancellation upon changing engines.

Is the negative effect of this is legit contexts can't keep submitting and changing the map? Only if PREEMPT_TIMEOUT is disabled I think but still. Might break legitimate userspace. Not that I offer solutions.. :( Banning changing engines once context went non-persistent? That too can break someone.
