[PATCH 1/5] drm/amdgpu:keep ctx alive till all job finished

Even we release the ctx as usual way,
Can we guarantee the pde/pte and PRT/CSA are all alive (BO, mappings) when resubmitting the timeout job (assume this time out job can signal after the resubmit)?

You know App can submit a command a release all BO and free_ctx, close FD/VM, and exit very soon, it just doesn't wait for the  fence signal

Yes, and exactly that is the danger I was talking about. We messed up the tear down oder with that and try to access resources which are already freed when the job is now scheduled.

I would rather say we should get completely rid of the ctx kref counting, that was a rather bad idea in the first place.

Regards,
Christian.
