>Subject: [PATCH v2] drm/scheduler: Avoid accessing freed bad job.
>
>Problem:
>Due to a race between drm_sched_cleanup_jobs in sched thread and
>drm_sched_job_timedout in timeout work there is a possiblity that bad job
>was already freed while still being accessed from the timeout thread.
>
>Fix:
>Instead of just peeking at the bad job in the mirror list remove it from the list
>under lock and then put it back later when we are garanteed no race with
>main sched thread is possible which is after the thread is parked.
>
>v2: Lock around processing ring_mirror_list in drm_sched_cleanup_jobs.
