Not sure how this help, the problem is not there but in amdgpu_job_run, 
for embedded fence and resubmit job in pending list amdgpu_job_run
will be called twice or even 3 times with recheck guilty job sequence. I 
am supposed to do dma_fence_init to embeded HW fence only on first call 
while on second and
third only update sequence_num and increase refcount. How can i 
differentiate between first and non first calls without job_run_counter ?
