To be clear, we are only discussing wait-before-submit for client CPU
waits. The GPU will not be waiting, only some userspace process. If that
process is a compositor, it should take measures to avoid getting hung up
by bad clients. What this will *not* cause is the GPU (or kernel GPU
scheduling) to get hung up on waiting for some unsubmitted thing.
