[PATCH 1/1] drm/amdkfd: Do not ignore requested queue size during allocation

DIQ is the debug interface queue. Are you running a GPU debugger?
Otherwise I would not expect to even see a DIQ.

Are you not seeing any compute queues in mqds? If there are no compute
queues in mqds, that means your queue has been destroyed. That would
explain why the read pointer is not advancing.
