Have we actually seen a gpu hang due to context restore after reset? Afaik
most of this stuff just loads a bit of register state, so as long as we
don't run any commands I don't see much issues.
The real fix here is to not run any batches any more, which some of the
arb robustness stuff from Mika will eventually do. So if this doesn't fix
any real-world issues (testcases pls) I'll revert it again ...
