In our last attempt to fix races in the panfrost_job_timedout() path we
overlooked the case where a re-submitted job immediately triggers a
fault. This lead to a situation where we try to stop a scheduler that's
not resumed yet and lose the 'timedout' event without restarting the
timeout, thus blocking the whole queue.
Let's fix that by tracking timeouts occurring between the
drm_sched_resubmit_jobs() and drm_sched_start() calls.

In here we've resubmitted the jobs and are no longer holding the mutex.
So AFAICT if one of those jobs fails we may re-enter
panfrost_job_timedout() and stop (no-op) the scheduler. The first thread
could then proceed to start the scheduler (possibly during the GPU reset
handled by the second thread which could be interesting in itself),
followed by the second thread attempting to start the scheduler which
then hits the WARN_ON().
Of course the above requires somewhat crazy scheduling, but I can't see
anything preventing it from happening. Am I missing something?
