And all those ugly hack are there because we reuse a dma_fence (hw_fence 
embedded into the job) and correct me if I am wrong
but I don't think dma_fence is ever supposed to be reused.

So maybe like Victor suggested we should move close and flush irq before 
sched_stop - this in my opinion should solve the issue, but Victor - why 
then you still need the change in amdgpu_fence_process ? You will not 
have the overflow situation because by moving irq_disable before stop 
any job that signaled will be removed from the scheduler pending list 
anyway. Also not that this change reverts 'drm/amdgpu: sanitize fence 
numbers' and could reintroduce that bug.
