[RFC] Problems with SRBM select on KIQ

We ran into a similar problem when we played with priorities on KFD
queues. You can't change an MQD of a currently mapped queue. To change a
queue priority we need to unmap it, update the MQD, and then map it again.

I wonder if a queue can change its own priority by using register write
commands in the queue itself.
